Hi I'm working through the programming exercises in my Practical C Programming 3rd Ed, and I'm having trouble even creating a formula to solve the problem. The problem is as follows:
A leap year is any year divisible by 4, unless the year is divisible by 100, but not 400. Write a program to tell if a year is a leap year.
Now at first I thought by possibly using the if() statement I could figure this out and the if() statement still might suffice, but it appears I need to tell whether the condition is positive or false aka whether the year is divisble by 100 but not 400. I just don't know how to do that and I was wondering if someone could either show me how or point me in the right direction. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again to all the cool folks who've helped me in the past.
