Good evening to all,
i need to create an "IF" case that is executed only if an INT variable is even.
there are some quick command or operators to do that in KRL language?
thank you in advance

This was the first question I asked on these forums about 5 years ago. I see it get asked pretty readily now.
people don't know things anymore... they ask online instead of read/learn. remove internet and they are absolutely helpless...
Eh. People said the same thing when public libraries first became widely available. And I'm fairly certain I've seen some Early Modern Era diatribes about how the spread of printing presses would cause people's ability to memorize information to atrophy (these diatribes written down and recorded in printed books, ironically enough).
Here's the thing: people remember what they use regularly. The internet has simply made it easier to get by with a bare minimum of knowledge. I see examples all the time in the Making, Machining, and woodworking communities -- utter n00bs who only need to know how to do One Little Thing in an area of technical expertise, often b/c it's a side-item to their "day jobs." Costumers, for example, who want to know just enough about soldering and Arduino programming to add blinky LEDs to their clothes. They can get darn good at it, but it's literally the only thing they know how to do with electronics, because it's all they need or want to know. And they learned it by asking questions like this on the internet. Pre-internet, they would have had to hire an electronics specialist, or spent the time and money to take an electronics course, 90% of which they neither wanted nor needed. All in all, the ways things are now is an improvement.
The bad part is, some people get lazy and don't bother searching for answers to questions that have already been answered many times (which makes the people who answer those questions get really sick and tired of them). There's also been a failure to train people in how to ask well-crafted questions. Part of this, though, is b/c our search engines are fairly stupid -- people can come across as asking "dumb questions" that are already in the FAQ simply because they don't know what search terms to use, and have no way to find them out. Having been on both sides of this fence, I painfully familiar with the frustration from both ends.
