Exercise 2: Checking for odd numbers

One obvious way to check for odd numbers in C 

int isOdd(int n) { return (n%2) == 1; }

Could we use & to achieve the same thing? How?


Aside: an alternative to the above 

#define isOdd(n)  ((n)%2) == 1)

What's the difference between the function and the macro?
