code:
(DivideableWith4 && !DivideableWith100) || DivideableWith400
Now, how can I easily get the program to check if it is possible to divide a number with those?
divide the number and check if there is a remainder.

This can either be done by comparing the integer division with a floating point division. eg:
   floatingpoint = 101 / 4
   integer = 101 \ 4
   If floatingpoint == integer Then IsDivideableBy4

Or by the MOD function. eg:
  If (101 MOD 4) * 4 = 101 Then IsDivideableBy4

Or maybe Java even has function which directly returns the remainder of a division (dunno). eg:
  Remainder = 101 XXX 4
  If Remainder = 0 Then IsDivideableBy4
