}

OUTPUT

Please enter any year 2012

This year is a leap year

Please enter any year 1997

This year is not a leap year

EXPLANATION

Simple formula is used in this program. Leap years are always fully divided by 4. So when the user input any year, the program divided that input by 4 and if the remainder is “0” its mean the year is leap year otherwise it is not a leap year.
