  Whats the alternative a macro? An inline function is perfectly fine for checking if a nunber is even. Compiler will probably optimize it to a single and instruction.

    No. The alternative is to not use a float. Testing if a float is even simply does not make sense.

    Even testing two floats for equality rarely makes sense.

      It does if it dosen’t have a decimal. If it has decimal then it automatically isn’t and the function will return false.
