Test a custom input to verify an edge case (e.g. empty lists, negative numbers, duplicates).
This bug belongs to the logic errors pattern
The wrong operator, an inverted condition, a formula the right way round but backwards.
What went wrong: The enhanced for-loop uses an implicit Iterator. Calling list.remove() mutates the collection directly, causing the iterator's modCount check to fail with ConcurrentModificationException on the next iteration.
The fix: Use list.removeIf(n -> n % 2 != 0) or use an explicit Iterator and call iterator.remove().
Remember: Never mutate a collection directly while iterating over it with an enhanced for-loop. Use removeIf() or Iterator.remove().
The pattern behind it: logic errors.
