Help with the elif - leap year exercise

Can somebody tell me what mistake is there in the code to solve the leap year exercise? This is my code: year = int(input()) #your code goes here if year % 4 != 0: print ("Not a leap year") elif year % 100 != 0: print ("Not a leap year") elif year % 400 != 0: print ("Not a leap year") else: print ("Leap year")

Check out the condition for leap year in the first case year = int(input()) # your code goes here if year % 4 == 0 and year % 100 != 0: print(year, "is a Leap Year") elif year % 100 == 0: print(year, "is not a Leap Year") elif year % 400 ==0: print(year, "is a Leap Year") else: print(year, "is not a Leap Year")

I was able to figure out the long version of it, if that helps at all. if year % 4 == 0: if year % 100 == 0: if year % 400 == 0: print("Leap year") else: print("Not a leap year") else: print("Leap year") else: print("Not a leap year")

Took me a while to combine all these answers in the perfect one but here is what I've done myself year = int(input()) if year%4==0 and year%100!=0: print('Leap year') elif year%4==0 and year%100==0 and year%400==0: print('Leap year') elif year%4!=0 and year%100==0 and year%400!=0: print('Not a leap year') elif year%4!=0: print('Not a leap year') elif year%4==0 and year%100==0 and year%400!=0: print('Not a leap year') it is for every single case

it took me a minute to figure out the right method, but I managed to solve all test cases with: year = int(input()) if year % 4 != 0: print("Not a leap year") elif year % 100 != 0: print ("Leap year") elif year % 400 == 0: print ("Leap year") else: print ("Not a leap year")

Second condition: elif year % 100 == 0: Instead of: elif year % 100 != 0: Full code: year = int(input()) #your code goes here if year % 4 != 0: print ("Not a leap year") elif year % 100 == 0: print ("Not a leap year") elif year % 400 != 0: print ("Not a leap year") else: print ("Leap year")

Daniel Lopez, Simba's code is also working (our codes do the same, but in different ways)!

Simba, 1. It is normal that there are multiple ways to solve the same task. 2. Should be, and our codes should be like that.

it would work :-) year = int(input()) #your code goes here if year%4!=0: print("Not a leap year") elif year%100!=0: print('Leap year') elif year%400==0: print('Leap year') else: print("Not a leap year")

year = int(input()) #your code goes here if year%4==0 and year%100!=0 : print( "Leap year") elif year%4==0 and year%100==0 and year%400==0 : print( "Leap year") else : print("Not a leap year")
