How does that contradict what that guy said? You wrote different code than what he wrote. You're exploiting "truthy/falsey" values; the other guy's just using regular booleans

How does the "return year%4==0..." sentence know what you are returning is a boolean? Is that defined by "def is_leap"? Thank you
because all expressions used in that return statement evaluate to booleans
thanx
thanks brother
sir,can you give a clear description about return statements
That exactly is not the case. Try to run following code in interpreter:
def is_leap(year):
Invoke it using
is_leap(1464)
It returns 64 instead of True. Thats because the expression (year%100) returns 64
to mitigate that run following code and that returns either True or False:
def is_leap(year): return (not(year%4) and (bool(year%100) or not(year%400)))

check again. he also used == signs to evaluate it to a boolean expression.
the == operator evaulatues the conditon to a boolean
How it give an boolen value ?
