I added a new Python snippet which checks whether a number is even or not using bitwise operator.

Positive aspects:

  • The code is short and concise, making it easy to understand.
  • The use of the bitwise AND operator to check if the last binary digit is 0 is a valid approach.

Points to consider:

  • There is no handling for negative numbers. The current code assumes that the input numbers are non-negative. If negative numbers are passed to the function, the result may not be as expected. It would be helpful to add a handling for this, such as converting negative numbers to positive before performing the verification.
  • It would be beneficial to add a brief explanation of the function, such as a docstring, to facilitate understanding of its purpose and behavior.

Example:

def is_even_bitwise(number):
    """
    Checks if a given number is even using the bitwise AND operator.

    Args:
        number (int): The number to be checked.

    Returns:
        bool: True if the number is even, False otherwise.
    """
    if number < 0:
        number = -number  # Convert negative numbers to positive

    return (number & 1) == 0
