Good news! I know how to simplify math education. We rename eleven -> elodd and seven -> sodd. This will make it more obvious that they are odd numbers and not even.

Just think of the number of mars probes that will no longer crash because someone mistakes eleven to be an even number.

So please everyone start using elodd and sodd from now on.
