i agree with all sir that zero is an even number, but my colleagues ask if there is any book explaining that. they say zero is also divisible by 3. they say zero is not a number and not an odd number. it is an independent number.

that's how my colleagues insist that zero is not an even number. my emotions were bought. they argue which book explains that it is an even number

The question itself is philosophy.
Mr. Bemath knows 0 is an even number.
The problem is how to convince his friend.
