System.out.print("Insert a year: ");
int insertedYear = input.nextInt();
CheckYear cy = new CheckYear();
if(cy.isLeapYear(insertedYear))
{
System.out.println(insertedYear +
" is a leap year");
}
else
{
System.out.println(insertedYear +
" is not a leap year");

The following code writes the leap years mentioned above.
import java.util.Scanner;
public class CheckYear
{
public boolean isLeapYear(int year)
{
if(year % 4 == 0)
{
return true;
}
else
{
return false;
}
}
public static void main(String[] args)
{
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.print("Insert a year: ");
int insertedYear = input.nextInt();
CheckYear cy = new CheckYear();
if(cy.isLeapYear(insertedYear))
{
System.out.println(insertedYear +
" is a leap year");
}
else
{
System.out.println(insertedYear +
" is not a leap year");
}
input.close();
}
}
