# Leap Welcome to Leap on Exercism's Rust Track. If you need help running the tests or submitting your code, check out `HELP.md`. ## Instructions Given a year, report if it is a leap year. The tricky thing here is that a leap year in the Gregorian calendar occurs: ```text on every year that is evenly divisible by 4 except every year that is evenly divisible by 100 unless the year is also evenly divisible by 400 ``` For example, 1997 is not a leap year, but 1996 is. 1900 is not a leap year, but 2000 is. ## Notes Though our exercise adopts some very simple rules, there is more to learn! For a delightful, four minute explanation of the whole leap year phenomenon, go watch [this youtube video][video].
