* therefore, the function will return false

/*
* Checking if number is even using bitwise operator
*
* Bitwise AND (&) compares the bits of the 32
* bit binary representations of the number and
* returns a number after comparing each bit:
*
* 0 & 0 -> 0
* 0 & 1 -> 0
* 1 & 0 -> 0
* 1 & 1 -> 1
*
* For odd numbers, the last binary bit will be 1
* and for even numbers, the last binary bit will
* be 0.
*
* As the number is compared with one, all the
* other bits except the last will become 0. The
* last bit will be 0 for even numbers and 1 for
* odd numbers, which is checked with the use
* of the equality operator.
