Using Haskell you can write it way more concise:

iseven :: Int -> Bool
iseven 0 = True
iseven 1 = False
iseven 2 = True
iseven 3 = False
iseven 4 = True
iseven 5 = False
iseven 6 = True
iseven 7 = False
iseven 8 = True
...

However, we can be way smarter by only defining the 2 base cases and then a recursive definition for all other numbers:

iseven :: Int -> Bool
iseven 0 = True
iseven 1 = False
iseven n = iseven (n-2)

It's having a hard time with negative numbers, but honestly that's quite a mood

Recursion is its own reward
