1. First, write the method

public static boolean isLeapYear(int year)

...which returns true or false depending on whether the given year is a leap year or not.
A year is a leap year if it is evenly divisible by four. 
However, a year divided by 100 is a leap year only if it is also divided by 400. 
So, for example, 2000 and 2004 are leap years, but 1900 is not.



2. After that, write the method

public static void leapYears()

...which asks the user to enter the start and end of the year. 
The method then prints all leap years found between these years. 
Make use of the method isLeapYear!


Example on method execution:
Give start: 1970
Give end: 1977
1972 is a leap year
1976 is a leap year









import java.util.Random;
import java.util.Scanner;



public class Test{
    public static void main(String[] args){
        final Random r = new Random();
        leapYears();
    }


    // ADDED 1
    public static boolean isLeapYear(int year){
        if (year % 4 == 0) {
            // divided by 100
            if (year % 100 == 0) {
                // divided by 400
                if (year % 400 == 0) {
                    return true;
                }
                return false;
            }
            // normal leap year, divided by 4
            else {
                return true;
            }
        }
        // not a leap year
        return false;
    }
    

    // ADDED 2
    public static void leapYears() {
        Scanner reader= new Scanner(System.in);

        System.out.print("Give start: ");
        int start = Integer.valueOf(reader.nextLine());
        System.out.print("Give end: ");
        int end = Integer.valueOf(reader.nextLine());

        for (int i = start; i <= end; i++) {
            if (isLeapYear(i)) {
                System.out.println(i + " is a leap year");
            }
        }
    }

}
