The most recent leap year was in 2012. The next leap year is in 2016.

You can tell if a year is a leap year using the following rule. The year is evenly divisible by 4. An except is if the year is also evenly divisible by 100 and not evenly divisible by 400. For example, the year 1900 is evenly divisible by 4 and 100 but not divisible by 400 so it was not a leap year. The year 2000 is evenly divisible by 4, 100, and 400 so it was a leap year.

Why does your b-day fall on a different day of the week every day?

Because a year has 365 days (or 366 in a leap year) and a week has 7 days. 7 does not divide into 365 or 366. The remainder of 1 in a non-leap year means that your birthday will be one day of the week later if there has not been a leap day since your previous b-day. A remainder of 2 in a leap year means that your birthday will be two days of the week later if there has been a leap day since your previous b-day. The reason for using leap days instead of leap years in the last paragraph is that birthdays that fall before the leap day (1 January-28 February) are affected by leap years in the PREVIOUS year.

How come there was no leap year in the year 2000?

Generally speaking, years that are evenly divisible by 4 are leap years. However years that are evenly divisible by 100 are not leap years, unless they are also evenly divisible by 400, in which case they are leap years2000 mod 4 = 02000 mod 400 = 0So 2000 was a leap year, as was 1600. 1700, 1800 and 1900 were not. 2100, 2200, 2300 will not be leap years; 2400 will be.
