peter,
ok, it works like this...
in the example you posted, there are two return statements. it might
have been better written like this:
def julian_leap(y):
if (y%4) == 0:
return 1 #is returned if the conditional is true
else:
return 0 #is returned if the conditional is false
it'd look something like this:
>>> def julian_leap(y):
... if (y % 4) == 0:
... return "yes"
... else:
... return "no"
...
>>> julian_leap(4)
'yes'
>>> julian_leap(7)
'no'
make sense?
