If provided positive or negative `infinity`, the function will return `true`, when, in fact, the result is undefined. If `x` can be `infinite`, wrap the implementation as follows: ```javascript function check( x ) { return ( x < Infinity && x > -Infinity && isOdd( x ) ); } var bool = check( Infinity ); // returns false bool = check( -Infinity ); // returns false ``` </section> <!-- /.notes --> <section class="examples"> ## Examples <!-- eslint no-undef: "error" --> ```javascript var randu = require( '@stdlib/random/base/randu' ); var round = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/round' ); var isOdd = require( '@stdlib/math/base/assert/is-odd' ); var bool; var x; var i; for ( i = 0; i < 100; i++ ) { x = round( randu()*100.0 ); bool = isOdd( x ); console.log( '%d is %s', x, ( bool ) ? 'odd' : 'not odd' ); } ``` </section> <!-- /.examples --> <section class="links"> </section> <!-- /.links -->
