### Leap Year Determination in the Gregorian Calendar

A year in the modern Gregorian Calendar consists of 365 days. In reality, the earth takes longer to rotate around the sun. To account for the difference in time, every 4 years, a leap year takes place. A leap year is when a year has 366 days: An extra day, February 29th. The requirements for a given year to be a leap year are:

1. The year must be divisible by 4
2. If the year is a century year (1700, 1800, etc.), the year must be evenly divisible by 400; therefore, both 1700 and 1800 are not leap years.

Some example leap years are 1600, 1712, and 2016.

#### Example Inputs and Outputs

- If the input is 1712, the output is:

  ```
  1712 - leap year
  ```

- If the input is 1913, the output is:

  ```
  1913 - not a leap year
  ```

#### Program Example

Below is an example program written in C, which takes in a year and determines whether that year is a leap year.

```c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdbool.h>

int main(void) {
    int inputYear;
    bool isLeapYear = false;

    scanf("%d", &inputYear);
    /* Type your code here. */

    return 0;
}
```

In this program:
- `#include <stdio.h>` and `#include <stdbool.h>` are directives to include the standard input-output and boolean libraries respectively.
- `int main(void)` is the main function where the program starts execution.
- `int inputYear;` declares an integer variable `inputYear` to hold the year input.
- `bool isLeapYear = false;` initializes a boolean variable `isLeapYear` to false.
- `scanf("%d", &inputYear);` reads the input year from the user.

The actual logic to determine whether `inputYear` is a leap year should be typed where it says `/* Type your code here. */`.
