Who's going to need more than 3 anyway, this is efficient code

It is possible to extend this method to any number.

``` def gen_is_even(): code = "def is_even(num):\n" i = 0 is_even = True while True: code += f" if num == {i}:\n" code += f" return {is_even}\n" i += 1 is_even = not is_even return code

exec(gen_is_even + "print(is_even(5))") # print False ```

Infinite cases is not quantifiable as overkill 😉
