11 Ask user for an input date (e.g. DD/MM/YYYY) and store it appropriately. [1m]
Validation if input has D, M and Y being digits and length is 10. [1m]
Use while-loop to ask user to re-enter input if valid [1m]
Separate DD, MM and YYYY using indexing or slicing and store in appropriate variables [1m]
Use mod (%) in conditions to determine leap year [1m]
Use if-else logically to determine leap year [1m]
Use list to store data on how many days in a month, and 1 ≤ month ≤ 30 [1m]
Use if-else logically to determine if day corresponds to month, e.g. 1 ≤ day ≤ 30 [1m]
Use leap year to decide if 29 Feb is valid
Output appropriately to inform user if it is leap year and/or if date is valid
(Any 8 points to score maximum 8m)
-1m for poor programming habits, e.g. improper variable name
-1m for any syntax error that disrupts the proper running of the program
-1m for any logical error that contradicts the program requirements in the question
12 Input prompts are appropriate, e.g. ask for DD/MM/YYYY format [1m]
Date validity output correctly and appropriately [1m]
13 Initialize counter for counting leap years [1m]
For-loop or while-loop with appropriate range, 1582 up to previous year [1m]
Increasing counter logically each time the loop is running [1m]
Output leap year results with an appropriate statement [1m]
14 Initialize days to store total number of days since 1 Jan 1583, add days in current month [1m]
Calculate total days from 1 Jan 1583 to 1 Jan of current year assuming 365 days per year [1m]
Add extra days during leap years into the total days [1m]
For-loop to add total number of days in months of the current year up to current month [1m]
Using if-else appropriately to determine if date in current year has extra day [1m]
Use list to store names of the days of the week, in the correct order [1m]
Use mod (%) to determine which day of the week and output correct day of the week
(Any 6 points to score maximum 6m)
