A common year in the modern Gregorian Calendar consists of 365 days. In reality, 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 Some example leap years are 1600, 1712, and 2016. Write a program that takes in a year and determines the number of days in February for that year
Question:
A common year in the modern Gregorian Calendar consists of 365 days. In reality, 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
Some example leap years are 1600, 1712, and 2016.
Write a program that takes in a year and determines the number of days in February for that year.
My Code:
def days_in_feb(user_year):
is_leap_year = 29
not_leap_year = 28
if user_year % 4 ==0:
return is_leap_year
elif user_year % 4 ==0 and user_year % 100 == 0 and user_year % 400 == 0:
return is_leap_year
else:
return(not_leap_year)
if __name__ == '__main__':
# Type your code here. Your code must call the function.
user_year = int(input())
days = days_in_feb(user_year)
print(user_year,'has', days, 'days in February.')
Error:
I get 7/10 points but I fail the 1900 question.
