JavaScript: Find the leap years from a given range of years
JavaScript Array: Exercise-16 with Solution
Find Leap Years in Range
Find the leap years in a given range of years.
Visual Presentation:
Sample Solution:
JavaScript Code:
// Function to generate an array of leap years within a specified range
function leap_year_range(st_year, end_year) {
// Initialize an array 'year_range' to store all years within the range
var year_range = [];
// Loop through the years in the specified range and add them to the array
for (var i = st_year; i <= end_year; i++) {
year_range.push(i);
}
// Initialize a new array 'new_array' to store leap years
var new_array = [];
// Use forEach to iterate through each year in 'year_range'
year_range.forEach(
function(year) {
// Call the 'test_LeapYear' function to check if the current year is a leap year
if (test_LeapYear(year)) {
// If it is a leap year, add it to 'new_array'
new_array.push(year);
}
}
);
// Return the array of leap years
return new_array;
}
// Function to test if a given year is a leap year
function test_LeapYear(year) {
// Check if the year is divisible by 4 but not divisible by 100, or if it is divisible by 100 and 400
if ((year % 4 === 0 && year % 100 !== 0) || (year % 100 === 0 && year % 400 === 0)) {
// Return the year if it's a leap year
return year;
} else {
// Return false if it's not a leap year
return false;
}
}
// Output the array of leap years in the range 2000 to 2012
console.log(leap_year_range(2000, 2012));
Output:
[2000,2004,2008,2012]
Flowchart:
ES6 Version:
// Function to generate an array of leap years within a specified range
const leap_year_range = (st_year, end_year) => {
// Initialize an array 'year_range' to store all years within the range
const year_range = [];
// Loop through the years in the specified range and add them to the array
for (let i = st_year; i <= end_year; i++) {
year_range.push(i);
}
// Initialize a new array 'new_array' to store leap years
const new_array = [];
// Use forEach to iterate through each year in 'year_range'
year_range.forEach((year) => {
// Call the 'test_LeapYear' function to check if the current year is a leap year
if (test_LeapYear(year)) {
// If it is a leap year, add it to 'new_array'
new_array.push(year);
}
});
// Return the array of leap years
return new_array;
};
// Function to test if a given year is a leap year
const test_LeapYear = (year) => {
// Check if the year is divisible by 4 but not divisible by 100, or if it is divisible by 100 and 400
if ((year % 4 === 0 && year % 100 !== 0) || (year % 100 === 0 && year % 400 === 0)) {
// Return the year if it's a leap year
return year;
} else {
// Return false if it's not a leap year
return false;
}
};
// Output the array of leap years in the range 2000 to 2012
console.log(leap_year_range(2000, 2012));
