08. Leap Year Checker Beginner Projects

To build a simple, beginner-friendly Leap Year Checker application in Python, here are the key ideas:

1. Basic Features

• User Input: The program will prompt the user to input a year.
• Leap Year Logic: Implement the logic to check whether a year is a leap year:
  • If the year is divisible by 4, it's a leap year.
  • However, if it's also divisible by 100, it needs to be divisible by 400 to be a leap year.
• Output Result: The program will print whether the entered year is a leap year or not.

2. Workflow

• Input: Ask the user to enter a year (ensure the input is numeric).
• Process: Apply the leap year formula to the input.
• Output: Display whether the year is a leap year or not.

3. Error Handling

• Handle invalid input (like non-numeric values) by giving an error message and asking for the input again.

4. Loop (Optional)

• You can add a loop to allow users to check multiple years until they choose to exit.

This project will help you practice basic Python concepts like conditionals, user input, and loops.
