New submission from Sasa Banjac: Hello! I am using the calendar.leapdays(y1,y2) function. It should return the number of leap years betwwen y1 and y2 (exclusive). However the function still cant process mutliple centuries. Example: between 1900 and 2000 we have 24 leap years: 1904,08,12,16,20,24,28,32,36,40,44,48,52,56,60,64,68,72,76,80,84,88,92,96 leapdays(1900,2000) returns 24 -> OK however leapdays(1899,2000) returns also 24 NOT OK leapdays(1899,2001) returns 25 NOT OK leapdays(1900,2001) returns 25 OK
This means that the function has a problem with the lower boundary If I try to calculate the number of leap days in a larger interval of years, the error is considerable: leapdays(1,2001) returns 485 But 485 * 4 = 1940 ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 171427 nosy: sbanjac priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Calendar.leapdays(y1,y2) bug versions: Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16078> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
