My code condition statement issue
Hello ! I started programming java a while ago and I tend to do challenges that will help in my studies.
I am doing a leap year calculator and the parameter needs to be in range 1 -9999 else it will returned false though my code is incorrect.
so this is my code :
public static boolean isLeapYear(int year) { boolean result = false; if ( (year >= 1) && (year <= 9999) && (year % 400 == 0) || (year % 4 == 0) && (year % 100 != 0) ) result = true; return result; }
Re: My code condition statement issue
How are you trying to debug the code? I suggest using print statements that print out the values of all the subexpressions so you can see which one(s) are not evaluating the way you want.
You may be having a problem with operator precedence. See the tutorial:https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutor...operators.html
Use ()s To make sure the operators are evaluated in the desired order.
If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
