Program to find leap Year or not in Python

 What is a Leap year ?

Generally  we have 28 days in the month of February and overall 365 days in a year. But a leap year have 29 days in the month of February and overall 366 days in a year. For every four years we get a leap year.

Conditions to be a leap Year.

Year divisible by 4 is a leap year until it is not divisible by 100 (century year{year ends with 00} is not a leap year until it is divisible by 400, if it is divisible by 400 then it is a leap year.

Explanation : 

  • For a non century year  if year divisible by 4 then it is a leap year.

    For a non century year  if year not divisible by 4 then it is not a leap year.

  • If year is a century year then it is not a leap year.

  • Century year is said to be a leap year if it is divisible by 400 .

Input :

enter a year 2400

Output : 

2400 is a leap year 

Program to find leap Year or not in Python


#program to say leap year or not
year=int(input("enter a year "))
if year%4==0:
    if 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 a leap year.")
else:
    print(year,"is not a leap year.")
    
#----method 2------using ternary operator---------#
year=int(input())
print("leap year"if (year%4==0) else "not a leap year")

Output :

enter a year 2400
2400 is a leap year.

Day 4: Class vs. Instance || HackerRank || solution in Python

  Problem Objective In this challenge, we're going to learn about the difference between a  class  and an  instance ; because this is an  Object Oriented  concept, it's only enabled in certain languages. Check out the Tutorial tab for learning materials and an instructional video! Task Write a  Person  class with an instance variable,  , and a constructor that takes an integer,  , as a parameter. The constructor must assign   to   after confirming the argument passed as   is not negative; if a negative argument is passed as  , the constructor should set   to   and print  Age is not valid, setting age to 0. . In addition, you must write the following instance methods: yearPasses()  should increase the   instance variable by  . amIOld()  should perform the following conditional actions: If  , print  You are young. . If   and...

Day 0: Hello, World. | HackerRank || Python3

Objective In this challenge, we review some basic concepts that will get you started with this series. You will need to use the same (or similar) syntax to read input and write output in challenges throughout HackerRank. Check out the Tutorial tab for learning materials and an instructional video!  Task  To complete this challenge, you must save a line of input from stdin to a variable, print Hello, World. on a single line, and finally print the value of your variable on a second line. You've got this!   Note:  The instructions are Java-based, but we support submissions in many popular languages. You can switch languages using the drop-down menu above your editor, and the variable may be written differently depending on the best-practice conventions of your submission language.   Input Format  A single line of text denoting (the variable whose contents must be printed).  Output Format   Print Hello, World. on the first line, and ...

Day 1: Data Types | HackerRank | solution in python

 Program Objective Today, we're discussing data types. Check out the Tutorial tab for learning materials and an instructional video! Task Complete the code in the editor below. The variables  ,  and   are already declared and initialized for you. You must: Declare   variables: one of type  int , one of type  double , and one of type  String . Read   lines of input from stdin (according to the sequence given in the  Input Format  section below) and initialize your   variables. Use the   operator to perform the following operations: Print the sum of   plus your int variable on a new line. Print the sum of   plus your double variable to a scale of one decimal place on a new line. Concatenate   with the string you read as input and print the result on a new line. Note:  If you are using a language that doesn't support using   for string concatenat...
