Perhaps restating it like this will help:

  • in this task, you will write a function
  • the function will be named "even_odd"
  • the function will take one argument
  • the argument can be counted on to be a number
  • the function will test the number to see if it is even or odd
  • it will return True if the number was even, and False if odd
  • the remainder ("%") operator might be helpful for this
