assert IsEven(-2);

I removed the tail recursion for you:

private book IsEven(int number) {
    if(number > 1) return IsEven(number - 2) == true;
    if(number == 0) return true; 
    if(number == 2) return false;
}

I worked at Blizzard. I worked at Blizzard. I worked at Blizzard.

If small numbers are much more frequent, it's better to return early. Really, you should gather statistics about the numbers the function is called with, and put the most frequent ones at the top.

This noob even forgot zero

But this way your buddy in QA can build extra test cases and pay you back when he wins an award for most test cases created or some other corporate nonsense.

It's simple. The only problem is that your code sucks!

Nah.

Someone added him to an existing meme.

But, if this was his code he would defend it and condescendingly tell you that he is correct, you are not knowledgeable enough to understand and let you know he worked at Blizzard for seven years.

this is an old meme about yanderedev

The fuck is that

Though, obviously I had to come up with some ridiculous solutions:

bool IsEven(int i) => ((Func<string, bool>)(s => s[^1] == 48))($"{i:B}");

This one works without conditionals :)

bool IsEven(int i)
{
    try
    {
        int _ = (i & 1) / (i & 1);
    }
    catch (Exception)
    {
        return true;
    }

    return false;
}

Granted, writing the boilerplate for all possible 64 bit integers is a bit laborious,

I've been trying to figure out roughly how many lines of code that would equal out to but I've run out of fingers.

If it works it works. You mathematicians just don't understand the pragmatics. What is tech debt?

Alternatively you can divide by 2, turn it into an int, mtiply it by 2 and check if both numbers are the same.

or another stupid, but viable way to do it,

if number = 0:

return true

runloop = true

while runloop:

if number > 0:

number -= 2

else:

number += 2

if number = 1:

return false

runloop = false

if number = 2:

return true

runloop = false

still very shitty amature coding, doesn't depend on modulos, or anything that I can think of that some languages might lack an equivelant of.

Yandere Simulator Dev. Spaghetti code throughout

I did his "optimized" shading trick for a game my friends and I built for a coding project in school.

Because the project was due in three hours and we realized that we didn't have any menus. So it was a matter of getting anything functional as menus(stage selection, button mapping, main menu.)
So the game itself capped at 60fps on the potato school computers, but the static menus only got 20fps.
