[Greg Ewing] This is bug-prone, because it relies on isleap always returning a "normalised" boolean value. ... ... and similarly daysinyear = 365 + 1 if isleap(year) else 0 (Yes, I know that one's already been rejected. I can't stop liking it, though...) Heh. I immediately read that as daysinyear = (365 + 1) if isleap(year) else 0 I'm old enough to wish reality played along . If I would calculate my age using the above formula, it would be about 34. A fountain of youth!

Oh, sorry, I was even worse! My age would be 11 :-))
