Leap Year Function and Rules

This video tutorial guides viewers through writing a Python function to determine if a year is a leap year. It explains the rules for leap years, demonstrates how to implement these rules in Python using if statements, and shows how to test the function with user input. The tutorial concludes with running tests to ensure the function works correctly.
