3.28 LAB Leap Year

Every 4 years is a leap year which has 366 days instead of 365. For a year to be a leap year, it must be divisible by 4 but not by 100, or it must be divisible by 400. The document provides an example Python program that takes a year as input and prints whether it is a leap year or not based on these rules.

28 LAB: Leap year


A year in the modern Gregorian Calendar consists of 365 days. In reality, the
earth takes longer to rotate around the sun. To account for the difference in
time, every 4 years, a leap year takes place. A leap year is when a year has
366 days: An extra day, February 29th. The requirements for a given year to
be a leap year are:
1) The year must be divisible by 4
2) If the year is a century year (1700, 1800, etc.), the year must be evenly
divisible by 400
Some example leap years are 1600, 1712, and 2016.
Write a program that takes in a year and determines whether that year is a
leap year.
Ex: If the input is:
1712
the output is:
1712 - leap year
Ex: If the input is:
1913
the output is:
1913 - not a leap year

is_leap_year = False

input_year = int(input())

if input_year % 4 == 0 and input_year % 100 != 0:

print(input_year,'- leap year')

elif input_year % 400 == 0:


print(input_year,'- leap year')

else:

print(input_year,'- not a leap year')
