All language subtitles for 15. Is Leap Year - Question

What is going on and welcome back to another exercise, another interesting exercise in our programming

course.

And in this exercise, what we are going to talk about is what is a leap year and how we can write a

program that will check if a given year that we will specify is a leap year or not.

So basically saying let's say that, first of all, we want to talk about what is a leap year.

And John, generally speaking, we know that we have 365 days a year.

Right.

And there are years where when we simply have three hundred and sixty six days, which means we have

one additional day added to the end of the shortest month, which is February, which means that when

usual year goes on, standard years, we have just 28 days on February.

But there are years when we have 29 days.

And it means that in these years they are called leap year.

And during these years we will have 366 days in this year.

So basically that's the difference between a leap year and not to leap year.

And now all we have to do is simply to write a program that will check if a given year is leap or not,

if it's leap year or not.

And basically there are a couple of conditions that should be satisfied.

OK, I will just summarise everything to you right now that basically, if these conditions will be

satisfied, then we can say that a given year is leap year.

And if some of them were one of them is not satisfied, then we can absolutely say that this year is

not a leap year and this year will contain and just three hundred and sixty five days as usual.

So what is the first condition?

Let's say that the first condition is going to be like this.

If the year can be divided by four without a remainder, then it's probably a leap year.

OK, not 100 percent sure, but that's one of the conditions that we are going to use.

So if the year can be divided by four without a remainder, then probably it's OK.

But if the year can also be divided by a hundred without a remainder, then it's not a leap year.

OK, so we have some some sort of combination between different conditions that based on the result

of all of them, we may conclude if a year is leap or not.

OK, so if the year can also be divided by a hundred, then it's not a leap year.

But if this year it can be divided by 400, then it's a leap year.

OK, so I don't know how to put it straight, guys, but basically these are just the conditions for

satisfying, for satisfying of the result of leap year or not leap year.

I think that take a couple of moments to read once again.

OK, just to make sure you understand it.

And I, I think that encoding these things will look much easier for you because we will have a couple

of conditions and it will be like not so variable and it will be like straight to the point and you

will see exactly how to solve this problem with the leap year.

So I'll see you in the Solutions video.
