I don't know whether I'd call this "wrong" or not, but you can trim down your code by just returning the actual boolean:

def is_odd(number):
 return number % 2 == 0

If you're attached to the way you're writing things now though, I think the issue is that you've defined your constants within your main() function - try moving them outside the function definition.

Well, there's already a boolean in Python.

Perhaps something like:

def isOdd(n):
   return n%2 == 1

def showOdd(n):
   print {True: "Odd", False: "Even"}[isOdd(n)]

showOdd(4)
showOdd(5)

Thank you both baavgai and girasquid, I tried out both methods and they work fine, but just for the sake of laziness im gonna just put my global variables out of main function.

Thanks again!
