MOD: I updated the formatting of your code so people can follow it more easily. See the link to the Markdown Cheatsheet (below the text entry box) for how to do this.

def is_odd(value):
if value % 2 == 0:
print("False")
# Indent these next lines by one more tab each.
else:
print("True")
return value
Also, I suspect that you need to return either True or False. Right now, it just returns your original number, which isn't that useful.
So, instead of printing "True" and "False", try returning True and False. Then you can remove the final "return value" line.
I hope this helps!
