Leap year (disambiguation)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Leap Year (film))
A leap year is a year with an extra day (most commonly referred to as a "leap day") in February, making it 29 days instead of 28 days. Leap years generally occur once every four years, the last being 2012 and the next being 2016.
The current system is:
- Every 4th year starting with year 0 is a leap year
- Except every 100th year, when it is not observed
- Except every 400th year, when it is.
So 1900 was not a leap year, although the years 1896 and 1904 were. 2000, due to the "back in again" every 400 years, was a leap year
The system above was adopted in various countries at irregular intervals. See the article here. This resulted in a quadruple-exception in 1712, when February had 30 days.
