Zero is neither positive nor negative, its an even number though
1 is neither prime nor composite, it is an odd number.

Correct. The definition of "even" is "an integer divisible by 2 with no remainder". Zero gives no remainder when divided by 2, and thus is an even integer. The fact that zero is also divisible by odd integers such as 3, 5 or 10001 is irrelevant, as zero fits the definition of an even integer.atulmangal wrote:Rohu is correct Zero is considered an EVEN INTEGER...avdhut19 wrote:zero is not considered as even no.rohu27 wrote:Zero is neither positive nor negative, its an even number though

To sum up the rules of zero:
- Zero is neither positive nor negative. The very definition of "positive" or "negative" is "greater than zero" or "smaller than zero", respectively.
Zero is an integer
zero is even
Zero is divisible by anything (except itself) with no remainder. If x is divisible by 5, x=0 is a valid plug in.
