 Leap year calculator

💪This is a Difficult Challenge 💪

Instructions

Write a program that works out whether if a given year is a leap year. A normal year has 365 days, leap years have 366, with an extra day in February. The reason why we have leap years is really fascinating, this video does it more justice:

This is how you work out whether if a particular year is a leap year.

on every year that is evenly divisible by 4 

**except** every year that is evenly divisible by 100 

**unless** the year is also evenly divisible by 400

e.g. The year 2000:

2000 ÷ 4 = 500 (Leap)

2000 ÷ 100 = 20 (Not Leap)

2000 ÷ 400 = 5 (Leap!)

So the year 2000 is a leap year.

But the year 2100 is not a leap year because:

2100 ÷ 4 = 525 (Leap)

2100 ÷ 100 = 21 (Not Leap)

2100 ÷ 400 = 5.25 (Not Leap)

Warning your output should match the Example Output format exactly, even the positions of the commas and full stops.

Example Input 1

2400

Example Output 1

Leap year. 

Example Output 2

Not leap year.

Solution:


There are two ways to do this code.

Sol_1:

year = int(input("which year do you want to check? "))

if year%4 == 0:
  if year%100 == 0:
    if year%400 == 0:
      print("Leap year")
    else:
      print("Not leap yea")
  else:
      print("Leap year")
else:
  print("Not leap year")

Sol_2:

year = int(input("which year do you want to check? "))

if year%4 !=0:
    print("Not leap year.")
elif year%100 !=0:
    print("Leap year.")
elif year%400 !=0:
    print("Not leap year.")
else:
    print("Leap year.")

Tip calculator. write a program to calculate the tip along with the actual bill and then split the bill between your friends?   #If the bill was $150.00, split between 5 people, with a 12% tip.  #Each person should pay (150.00 / 5) * 1.12 = 33.6 #Format the result to 2 decimal places = 33.60 #Tip: There are 2 ways to round a number. You might have to do some Googling to solve this.💪 #Write your code below this line 👇 print ( "***Welcome to tip calculator***\n" ) bill =  float ( input ( "Enter total amount of bill\n" )) tip =  int ( input ( "What percentage of tip do you like to give 10, 12,or 15 ?\n" )) peo...
