awk recognizing even vs odd

[Guest_imported]

I need to determine if $2 is even or odd and then write out $0 to the appropriate even or odd .lis. What is the awk command that specifies this function. (modulator??)

Hi

Modulus is done with the operator %
so even is

if( $2 % 2 == 0 ){ ... } # even
else { ... } # odd

or odd is

if( $2 % 2 == 1 ){ ... }

Cheers,

The operator for modulo is %

if ($2 % 2 == 0)
print $0 > even.lis
else
print $0 > odd.lis Jean Pierre.
