Write a function in Python - Hacker Rank Solution
Problem
We add a Leap Day on February 29, almost every four years.
The leap day is an extra, or intercalary day and we add it to the shortest month
of the year, February.
In the Gregorian calendar three criteria must be taken into account to identify leap years:
In the Gregorian calendar three criteria must be taken into account to identify leap years:
- The year can be evenly divided by 4, is a leap year, unless:
- The year can be evenly divided by 100, it is NOT a leap year, unless:
- The year is also evenly divisible by 400. Then it is a leap year.
Task :
You are given the year, and you have to write a function to check if the year is leap or not.
Note that you have to complete the function and remaining code is given as template.
Input Format :
Read y, the year that needs to be checked.
Constraints :
- 1900 <= y <=10^5
Output Format :
Output is taken care of by the template. Your function must return a boolean
value (True/False)
Input Format :
1990
Output Format :
False
Explanation :
1990 is not a multiple of 4 hence it's not a leap year.Solution :
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 | # Write a function in Python - Hacker Rank Solution def is_leap(year): leap = False # Write your logic here # Write a function in Python - Hacker Rank Solution START if year%400==0 : leap = True; elif year%4 == 0 and year%100 != 0: leap = True; return leap # Write a function in Python - Hacker Rank Solution END year = int(raw_input()) print is_leap(year) |

Hey, I am Parthe Omkar
def is_leap(year):
leap = False
# Write your logic here
if (year%400==0) or (year%4==0 and year%100!=0):
return True
return leap
year = int(input())
print(is_leap(year))
Hi this is Jeeva. Actually I'm trying to pratice code at hackerrank.. while trying to write a function code
if(year%4 = = 0 or year%400 == 0 and year%100 !=0)
If I change the condition as like this getting error. Even the hackerrank question this order is different.. Could you please help me with this?
Error:
Error: wrong answer and test case 1
In ur logic compiler considers the priority of the operators as ur logic mentions like an expression. So 1st considers bitwise and operator(as year%400==0 and year%100!=0 satisfies) then the resultant condition checks checks with bitwise operator(with year%4==0)according to your logic...
