Check if a given year is a leap year
A leap year is a year with 366 days which is 1 extra day than a normal year. This extra day comes in the month of February and on leap year Feb month has 29 days than normal 28 days.
A leap year comes in an interval of 4 years.
A leap year comes in an interval of 4 years.
A year is a leap year if the following conditions are satisfied:
- The year is a multiple of 4
- The year is a multiple of 400 and not a multiple of 100.
Here is a simple Java program for checking if a given year is a leap year:
public class DevPrimer {
public static void main(String[] args) {
int year = 2012; // Replace this with the year you want to check
if (isLeapYear(year)) {
System.out.println(year + " is a leap year.");
} else {
System.out.println(year + " is not a leap year.");
}
}
public static boolean isLeapYear(int year) {
return year % 4 == 0 && (year % 400 == 0 || year % 100 != 0);
}
}
That's all on how to check if a given year is a leap year in Java.
