Every-Other-Digit Sums

Easy

You get a string digits made of decimal digits. Add up the digits at even positions (0, 2, 4, …) and, separately, the digits at odd positions (1, 3, 5, …). Return True if the two sums are equal, and False otherwise.

Example 1

digits="3825" → False

Even positions give 3 + 2 = 5 and odd positions give 8 + 5 = 13, so the sums differ.

Example 2

digits="2783" → True

Even positions: 2 + 8 = 10; odd positions: 7 + 3 = 10. The sums match.

Example 3

digits="00" → True

Constraints

2 ≤ len(digits) ≤ 100
