    C#: method name should be PascalCase (Please refer to implementation of backward compatibility here )

    Sample tests should include case where numbers are diffent, but they're both either odd or even.
    For instance Ruby:
    Test.assert_equals(lovefunc(7,5), false)
    or
    Test.assert_equals(lovefunc(6,8), false)

    Sample tests are passable with simple "value1 != value2", although they obviously fails the attempt and they would also fail if any of two examples above would be added.

    Multiplying numbers and rounding to decimal places has already been done to death.

    Needs random test cases

    This kata doesn't use any random tests yet. If it would use random tests and/or numbers up to 1e+50 you would notice that some solutions don't work due to the different order of fractional operations:

    Test.assertEquals(car(1e+50,1), 8e+49.toFixed(2))
    

    Instead of a string based test, a relative error comparison would be more adequate, e.g.

    function assertFuzzyEquals(actual, expected, msg){
      var rel_err = Math.abs((actual - expected)/expected);
      Test.expect(rel_err <= 1e-12, 
        "the actual value " + actual + 
        " differed from the expected one " + expected + 
        " by more than 0.0000000001%" +
        (msg ? "; " + msg : "")
      );
    }
    

    That way people can concentrate on the mathematics and don't need to worry about the order of their multiplication.

    PS: @Giacomo, @Zozo: Does any of you remember where I've used assertFuzzyEquals before? I can't find the kata.
