scanf("%d",&year);

// year is divisible by 400, hence the year is a leap year

Hints: Follow the steps:
1. if the year is evenly divisible by 4 then it is a leap year, otherwise go to step 2.
2. if the year is evenly divisible by 100 then go to step 3, otherwise it is a leap year.
3. if the year is evenly divisible by 400 then it is leap year, otherwise it is not a leap year.
In simple words we can say, if (year is divisible by 4 AND year is not divisible by 100) OR (year is
divisible by 400) then it is a leap year, otherwise it is not a leap year.
