@return true if year is a leap year, false otherwise

//-----------Start below here. To do: approximate lines of code = 6

// Write a static method isLeapYear. This method returns a boolean (true of false). It takes one parameter: an integer value - the year

// A year is a leap year if it is exactly divisible by 400 (i.e. remainder is 0)

// If it is not divisible by 400 then a year is also a leap year if it is exactly divisible by 4 AND it is NOT exactly divisible by 100

// Hint: use the modulus operator % to check if exactly divisible

the commented out portion is my code:

[ /*public static boolean isLeapYear(int year){

if(year % 4 == 0)

{

if (year % 400 == 0)

IsLeapYear = true;

}

if (year % 100 == 0)

IsLeapYear = false;

else

IsLeapYear = true; */

} ]
