In Java, why (num&1)==1 throwing error instead of giving answer 1?

try to do like this public class EvenOddBitwise { public static void main(String[] args) { int number = 65; if((number & 1) == 1) { System.out.println(number + " is Odd."); } else { System.out.println(number + " is Even."); } } }

Every odd number have 1 at the end of its binary representation! public static boolean isEven(int num) { return (num & 1) == 0; } //  (number % 2) or (number & 1)

Bitwise operators Java Bitwise AND "&" --> returns true if and only if both arguments are true! 1 & 1 = 1 0 & 0 = 0 0 & 1 = 0

you can use (num%2) to find Even/Odd It would be better if you put your code in the question.
