Converting Boolean values to string in Java

[27lynx27]

Hello everyone,

I'm working a problem where I need to take a boolean true or false result and convert it into a variable of either even or odd based on calculations.

I am able to print the statements out but I don't know how to convert the boolean = true to a string = Even.

Is there a simple way to do this conversion?

Here is the bit of code that I'm dealing with. Currenty I have the displayResults print statment just calling on my isEven method but I'm needing to convert it to True=Even, False=Odd. I've tried almost everything but I seem to keep getting a compliler error stating boolean to string incompatibility.

public void displayResults ()
{
System.out.printf("\n%s:%s:%s\n", number, isEven ());
}

public boolean isEven ()
{
if ((number % 2) == 0)
return true;
else
return false;
}
