John:

Not to disagree, but more simply.

A leap year is IF the year is evenly divisible by 4 AND is not the 
"turn of the century". IF it is a "turn of the century" year, then it 
must also be evenly divisible by 400.

PS: Did you know that this year (2006) we even added a leap second -- 
you don't even want to know the computations for that.
