it was the way to go over "if n % 2 == 0". By my tests, it's 4.3% to
9.5% faster, depending on the integer tested - size and whether odd or
even. See the speed testing script and results at
<http://tutoree7.pastebin.com/iragLgDz>.

Did you try:

if n % 2: pass
else:  do it here?

ie inverting the logic and omitting the equality test.
No idea if it makes a difference or not.
