create a function that determines if a specific value is odd.

I tried this both methods but still it is giving me error and I don't know. Help!!!

num = int (input ("Enter number: ")) def is_odd (num): if num % 2 != 0: return True else: return False

or num = int (input ("Enter number: ")) def is_odd (num): if num % 2 == 0: return False else: return True

You could try this:

def is_odd(num):
    if num % 2 != 0:
        return True
    else:
        return False


while True:
    num = int(input("Enter a number:   "))
    print(is_odd(num))
