+Challenge 115
+
+TASK #2 - Largest Multiple
+Submitted by: Mohammad S Anwar
+You are given a list of positive integers (0-9), single digit.
+
+Write a script to find the largest multiple of 2 that can be formed from the
+list.
+
+Examples
+Input: @N = (1, 0, 2, 6)
+Output: 6210
+
+Input: @N = (1, 4, 2, 8)
+Output: 8412
+
+Input: @N = (4, 1, 7, 6)
+Output: 7614
