Write a function that returns true or false depending on whether its input integer is a leap year or not.

A leap year is divisible by 4, but is not otherwise divisible by 100 unless it is also divisible by 400.

2001 is a typical common year
1996 is a typical leap year
1900 is an atypical common year 
2000 is an atypical leap year

Changes to the Cambridge Software Craftsmanship Community

Hi everyone

It's not often that we email our members, so please bear with me and read this to the end.

Recent events in the wider tech community, and reactions within the Software Craftsmanship community, have prompted wider discussions about the inclusiveness of the community, and I've decided to make some small but important changes to our local chapter.
