import java.util.Scanner;

public class CheckLeapYear
{
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
       int year;
       Scanner read = new Scanner(System.in);
    
       System.out.print("Enter Year : ");
       year = read.nextInt();
    
       if((year%400==0)||(year%100!=0 && year%4==0))
        System.out.println(year+" is a Leap Year.");
       else
        System.out.println(year+" is not a Leap Year.");
    }
}
