num % 2 isn't a boolean result in any of these languages, so I feel like it would always output "odd"

Edit: 0 is false, everything else is true.

All of those languages will convert numbers into booleans, 0 is false, all other numbers are true.

It doesn't make sense. I understand it, but it doesn't make sense.

I agree. If anything it should check if there is a nuumber and 0 is clearly a number.
