Golang Program to Check Whether a Given Year is a Leap Year
Steps
- Take the value of the year as input.
- Using an if-statement, check whether the year is a leap year or not
- Print the final result.
Enter the year to be checked: 2016 The year is a leap year! | Enter the year to be checked: 2005 The year isn't a leap year! |
Explanation
- User must first enter the year to be checked.
- The if statement checks if the year is a multiple of 4 but isn't a multiple of 100 or if it is a multiple of 400 (not every year that is a multiple of 4 is a leap year).
- Then, the result is printed.
Example
package main import "fmt" func main() { var year int fmt.Print("Enter the year to be checked:") fmt.Scanf("%d", &year) if year%4==0 && year%100!=0 || year%400==0{ fmt.Println("The year is a leap year!") }else{ fmt.Println("The year isn't a leap year!") } }
