Hi David, you are missing the number parameter. In this case I'm going to name it n:

def even_odd(n):
    if n % 2 == 0:
        return True
    else:
        return False

def even_odd(): # <-- missing a parameter here
    if  % 2 == 0: # <-- missing the number (parameter)
        return True
    else:
        return False

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