Checking Leap Year!

A simple code to check whether the given year is leap year or not.

Welcome to the code! Here’s a simple code to check whether the given year by the user is a leap year or not.

Condition for a leap year: 

  1. A leap year is exactly divisible by 4 except for century years (years ending with 00).
  2. The century year is a leap year only if it is perfectly divisible by 400.

In this code, the user is asked for a year and the given year will be checked to know whether the given year is a leap year or not using the python code.

					year = int(input("Enter the year to check: "))


if year % 4 == 0 and year % 100 != 0:
    print(year, "is a leap year")
elif year % 100 == 0:
    if year % 400 == 0:
        print(year, "is a leap year")
    else:
        print(year, "is not a leap year")   
else:
    print(year, "is not a leap year")
