As we learnt in

Odd Function -

f(-x)= -f(x)

- wherein

Symmetric about origin

 

 f(x)=\left\{\begin{matrix} \frac{n-1}{2} & when\ n\ is\ odd\\ -\frac{n}{2}& when\ n\ is\ even \end{matrix}\right.

For n odd: \frac{n-1}{2} will be different values

For n even: -\frac{n}{2}  will be different values

So then is one one and R\leq\ coordinate

So that it is onto both are even

Correct option is 2.
