QUIZ: Positive or Negative Number?
QUIZ: Positive or Negative Number?
Let’s test your logic! Can you determine if a number is positive or negative?
This is a fundamental concept in programming. Ready for a quick challenge?
The Challenge
Write a simple logic check (in any language you prefer!) to determine if a
given number is greater than 0.
Hint
Think about the basic comparison operators. Which one helps you check if a
value is larger than another?
The Code (JavaScript Example)
function isPositive(number) {
if (number > 0) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
// Let's test it!
console.log(isPositive(5)); // Output: true
console.log(isPositive(-2)); // Output: false
console.log(isPositive(0)); // Output: false
Brain Check!
Okay, hotshot! What will be the output of isPositive(-5)?
Click for answer!
The output will be false. -5 is not greater than 0.
