Write a function

  • zrolpin + 5 comments

    Reversing the order almost works, but you have to add an else block returning False at the end to capture cases where none of the if blocks execute (like for the year 1992) and also change all elif statements to if statements. I.e:

    def is_leap(year):
    if year % 400 == 0:
        return True
    if year % 100 == 0:
        return False
    if year % 4 == 0:
        return True
    else:
        return False

    This passes all the test cases.

      Why wouldn't 1992 return true if % 4 == 0 is the first statement? it divides cleanly by 4 with no remainder, yet it gives false in the original scenario.

      i did the same thing but it's not working for year 2100 2100 is a leap year,but according to the compiler we should get False.
