How to Check if the Year is a Leap Year in Python
In this tutorial, we will create a "How to Check if the Year is a Leap Year in Python". The purpose of this tutorial is to teach you how to determine if a year is a leap year. We will thoroughly guide you through the simple process of identifying a leap year. Additionally, I will provide a sample program to demonstrate the actual coding of this tutorial.
This tutorial is simple and easy to understand; just follow the instructions I provided, and you can do it without a problem. This program can be used in any system or application that uses the year as an entry for specific data. I will do my best to provide you with the easiest way to create this program, called "Check Leap Year". So, let's start with the coding.
Getting Started:
First you will have to download & install the Python IDLE's, here's the link for the Integrated Development And Learning Environment for Python https://www.python.org/downloads/.
Creating Main Function
This is the main function of the application. The following code will create the Leap Year Checker application with full functionality. To do this just copy and write these block of codes inside the IDLE text editor.- while True:
- print("\n")
- year = int(input("Enter a Year: "))
- if (year % 400 == 0) and (year % 100 == 0):
- print("{0} is a leap year \n".format(year))
- elif (year % 4 ==0) and (year % 100 != 0):
- print("{0} is a leap year \n".format(year))
- else:
- print("{0} is not a leap year \n".format(year))
In the code above, we initiated a while loop to ensure the program runs continuously after providing the result. To check if it is a leap year, we first create a variable that will receive the user input named year. Next, we use a conditional statement to evaluate the year and determine if it is a leap year. If it is possible, it will generate a positive result; if not, it will indicate that the year provided is not a leap year.
Output:
The How to Check if the Year is a Leap Year in Python source code that I provide can be download below. Please kindly click the download button.
There you have it we successfully created How to Check if the Year is a Leap Year in Python. I hope that this simple tutorial help you to what you are looking for. For more updates and tutorials just kindly visit this site. Enjoy Coding!
