That’s also slower than most of the stuff you could come up with, it is so slow that there is no hyperoperation fast enough to describe it. There were other approaches that were almost worse though, like “the function is a switch-case that returns false by default. As complaint tickets are opened, more cases get added to the switch-case”

Oh if that is acceptable, then my secondary idea of using an API call for this should work too. I thought that it would have to be guaranteed to be correct (as long as you don’t reach a stack overflow or something)
That’s , uh…
Yeah. Cooler than anything I could’ve achieved for purposefully bad is_even
My first idea of a purposefully bad is_even is this:
def is_even(i): return True if i == 0 else not is_even(abs(i)-1)But I’m sure I could come up with worse given enough time.
