Typo: even instead of odd? #14

Description

On page 40 there's a code listing printing a sequence of odd numbers with the following introduction:

Here is an example of using continue to print a string of even numbers. In this case, the result could be accomplished just as well with an if-else statement, but sometimes the continue statement can be a more convenient way to express the idea you have in mind:

In [7]: for n in range(20):
           # check if n is even
           if n % 2 == 0:
               continue
           print(n, end=' ')
1 3 5 7 9 11 13 15 17 19

Shouldn't the intro paragraph say odd instead of even?

Thank you for writing this book and publishing it for free! I really enjoy it and recommend it to my colleagues who have to dip their toes in some Python code.
