Leap Year Calculation Rules

One of the most important elements in date calculation is leap year determination. Since Earth takes approximately 365.2422 days to orbit the Sun, we need to add an extra day every 4 years to compensate for the 6-hour difference.

  • Divisible by 4: Leap year (2020, 2024, etc.)
  • Divisible by 100: Common year (1900, 2100, etc.)
  • Divisible by 400: Leap year (2000, 2400, etc.)

Example: 2000 is a leap year - Divisible by 400, so February has 29 days.
Example: 1900 is a common year - Divisible by 100 but not by 400, so February has 28 days.
