A better design would look like this:

    CREATE TABLE numbers (
      minus_four_billions_two_hundred_ninety_four_millions_nine_hundred_sixty_seven_thousands_two_hundred_ninety_six_is_even BOOLEAN,
      ...
      zero_is_even BOOLEAN,
      one_is_even BOOLEAN,
      two_is_even BOOLEAN,
      ...
      four_billions_two_hundred_ninety_four_millions_nine_hundred_sixty_seven_thousands_two_hundred_ninety_six_is_even BOOLEAN
    )
That design can store multiple versions of the data, making it more resilient to future changes in the even/odd property of numbers.
