Determine Odd Number in JavaScript

This challenge focuses on a fundamental concept in programming: determining if a given number is odd. Understanding how to identify odd numbers is crucial for various algorithms and data manipulations, forming a building block for more complex operations. Your task is to write a JavaScript function that accurately identifies whether a number is odd or not.

Problem Description

You are required to create a JavaScript function named isOdd that takes a single numerical argument (number) and returns true if the number is odd, and false otherwise. An odd number is any integer that is not divisible by 2, leaving a remainder of 1 when divided by 2. The function should handle both positive and negative integers correctly.

Key Requirements:

• The function must be named isOdd.
• It must accept a single argument: number (a number).
• It must return a boolean value: true if the number is odd, false if it's even.
• The function should work correctly for both positive and negative integers.
• The function should handle zero correctly (zero is considered even).

Expected Behavior:

The function should accurately determine the odd/even status of the input number based on the modulo operator.

Examples

Example 1:

Input: 5
Output: true
Explanation: 5 divided by 2 has a remainder of 1, therefore it's odd.

Example 2:

Input: 4
Output: false
Explanation: 4 divided by 2 has a remainder of 0, therefore it's even.

Example 3:

Input: -7
Output: true
Explanation: -7 divided by 2 has a remainder of -1, which is equivalent to 1 in terms of odd/even determination.

Example 4:

Input: 0
Output: false
Explanation: 0 divided by 2 has a remainder of 0, therefore it's even.

Constraints

• The input number will always be an integer.
• The input number can be positive, negative, or zero.
• The function should execute efficiently; performance is not a primary concern for this simple task.

Notes

Consider using the modulo operator (%) to determine the remainder when dividing by 2. The sign of the remainder doesn't matter; only whether it's 0 or not. Think about how the modulo operator works with negative numbers.
