how are you getting to the line starting with "leap"?
it SHOULD look like this:


>>> y=1900
>>> leap="no"
>>> if y % 400==0:
...     leap="yes"
... elif y % 100==0:
...     pass # whatever the rest of the code is
...
>>>

you just press enter once after each line, until you're done with
the entire if,elif..else construct
