Why 2300 is not a leap year

A year is a leap year in the Gregorian calendar when it is divisible by 4, with one exception and one exception to that exception: a year divisible by 100 is not a leap year unless it is also divisible by 400. 2300 is divisible by 4 and by 100, but not by 400, so the century exception applies: despite looking like a leap year, 2300 is a common 365-day year. This is the same reason 1900 was not a leap year.
