[9] [10] The years 2000 and 2400 are leap years, but not 1700, 1800, 1900, 2100, 2200, and 2300. By this rule, an entire leap cycle is 400 years which total 146,097 days, and the average number of days per year is 365 + 1 ⁄ 4 − 1 ⁄ 100 + 1 ⁄ 400 = 365 + 97 ⁄ 400 = 365.2425. [ 11 ]
This eliminates 3 of the 4 end-of-century years in a 400-year period. For example, the years 1600, 2000, 2400, and 2800 are century leap years since those numbers are evenly divisible by 400, while 1700, 1800, 1900, 2100, 2200, 2300, 2500, 2600, 2700, 2900, and 3000 are common years despite being evenly divisible by 4. This scheme brings the ...
As many common implementations of the leap year algorithm are incomplete or are simplified, they may erroneously assume 2100 to be a leap year, causing the date to roll over from 28 February 2100 to 29 February 2100, instead of 1 March 2100. The DS3231 hardware RTC has the 2100 year problem, because it uses 2-digit to store the year. [64]
The year 2000 was a leap year, for example, but the years 1700, 1800, and 1900 were not. The next time a leap year will be skipped is the year 2100," read an article from the Smithsonian.

For example, 1900 was not a leap year, but 2000 was. The Julian calendar—since 1923 a liturgical calendar—has a February 29 every fourth year without exception. Consequently, February 29 in the Julian calendar, since 1900, falls 13 days later than February 29 in the Gregorian, until the year 2100. [1]
According to TIME, the origin of Leap Years can be traced back to 46 BCE and 1582 as well as two historical figures: Julius Caesar and Pope Gregory XIII, respectively. ... 2000: You'd be 24 years ...
