/**

* Returns true if year is a leap year and false otherwise.

*

*

* A year is always a leap year if it is evenly divisible by 400; for all other

* years, a year is a leap year if it is evenly divisible by 4 and not evenly

* divisible by 100. For example:

*

*

* isLeapYear(2000) returns true (2000 is divisible by 400)

* isLeapYear(1900) returns false (1900 is divisible by 4 and 100)

* isLeapYear(2004) returns true (2004 is divisible by 4 but not 100)

* isLeapYear(2005) returns false (2005 is not divisible by 4)

*

*

* @param year

* a year

* @return true if year is a leap year and false otherwise

* @throws IllegalArgumentException

* if year is less than 1582 (the year the Gregorian

* calendar was adopted)

/**

* Returns a new list of characters formed by shuffling the

* characters of the given list. It is a precondition that

* the given list t contains at least two elements, and that

* the number of elements is an even number. The list is not

* modified by this method.

*

*

* To shuffle the characters in t, imagine splitting the list

* t in half so that the first (n / 2) characters of t are in

* one sublist, and the remaining (n / 2) characters of t are

* in the second sublist. The new returned list is formed by

* adding the first character of the first sublist to the

* new list, then adding the first character of the second sublist,

* then adding the second character of the first sublist, then

* adding the second character of the second sublist, and so on,

* until all of the characters in the two sublists are added

* to the new list.

*

*

* For example, if t was the list:

*

*

 
* ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f']
 
* 

*

*

* then splitting t into two sublists yields:

*

*

 
* ['a', 'b', 'c'] and ['d', 'e', 'f']
 
* 

*

*

* Take the first two characters of each sublist and add them to the

* new list:

*

*

 
* ['a', 'd']
 
* 

*

*

* Then take the next two characters of each sublist and add them to the

* new list:

*

*

 
* ['a', 'd', 'b', 'e']
 
* 

*

*

* Then take the next two characters of each sublist and add them to the

* new list:

*

*

 
* ['a', 'd', 'b', 'e', 'c', 'f']
 
* 

*

* @param t a non-null list of characters

* @return a new list equal to the shuffle of the characters in t

* @pre. t is not null

* @pre. t.size() is greater than or equal to 2

* @pre. t.size() is an even number
