Each character is mapped to its numeric equivalent, encrypted with a mathematical function and then converted to the letter relating to its new numeric value.
Although all monoalphabetic ciphers are weak, the affine cipher is much stronger than the atbash cipher, because it has many more keys.

A circular buffer first starts empty and of some predefined length.
For example, this is a 7-element buffer:
<!-- prettier-ignore -->
[ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ]

```text
[ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ]
```

Assume that a 1 is written into the middle of the buffer (exact starting location does not matter in a circular buffer):
<!-- prettier-ignore -->
[ ][ ][ ][1][ ][ ][ ]

```text
[ ][ ][ ][1][ ][ ][ ]
```

Then assume that two more elements are added — 2 & 3 — which get appended after the 1:
<!-- prettier-ignore -->
[ ][ ][ ][1][2][3][ ]

```text
[ ][ ][ ][1][2][3][ ]
```

If two elements are then removed from the buffer, the oldest values inside the buffer are removed.
The two elements removed, in this case, are 1 & 2, leaving the buffer with just a 3:
<!-- prettier-ignore -->
[ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][3][ ]

```text
[ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][3][ ]
```

If the buffer has 7 elements then it is completely full:
<!-- prettier-ignore -->
[5][6][7][8][9][3][4]

```text
[5][6][7][8][9][3][4]
```

When the buffer is full an error will be raised, alerting the client that further writes are blocked until a slot becomes free.

When the buffer is full, the client can opt to overwrite the oldest data with a forced write.
In this case, two more elements — A & B — are added and they overwrite the 3 & 4:
<!-- prettier-ignore -->
[5][6][7][8][9][A][B]

```text
[5][6][7][8][9][A][B]
```

3 & 4 have been replaced by A & B making 5 now the oldest data in the buffer.
Finally, if two elements are removed then what would be returned is 5 & 6 yielding the buffer:
<!-- prettier-ignore -->
[ ][ ][7][8][9][A][B]

```text
[ ][ ][7][8][9][A][B]
```

Because there is space available, if the client again uses overwrite to store C & D then the space where 5 & 6 were stored previously will be used not the location of 7 & 8.
7 is still the oldest element and the buffer is once again full.
<!-- prettier-ignore -->
[C][D][7][8][9][A][B]

```text
[C][D][7][8][9][A][B]

# Instructions

Given a year, report if it is a leap year.

The tricky thing here is that a leap year in the Gregorian calendar occurs:

```text
on every year that is evenly divisible by 4
except every year that is evenly divisible by 100
unless the year is also evenly divisible by 400
```

For example, 1997 is not a leap year, but 1996 is.
1900 is not a leap year, but 2000 is.

## Notes

Though our exercise adopts some very simple rules, there is more to learn!

# Introduction

A leap year (in the Gregorian calendar) occurs:

- In every year that is evenly divisible by 4
- Unless the year is evenly divisible by 100, in which case it's only a leap year if the year is also evenly divisible by 400.

Some examples:

- 1997 was not a leap year as it's not divisible by 4.
- 1900 was not a leap year as it's not divisible by 400
- 2000 was a leap year!
