The most brilliant age in the history of science prior to the seventeenth century a.d. was the period of the Hellenistic civilization. Indeed, many of the achievements of the modern age would scarcely have been possible without the discoveries of the scientists of Alexandria, Syracuse, Pergamum, and other great cities of the Hellenistic world. The reasons for the phenomenal development of science in the centuries after the downfall of Alexander's empire are not far to seek. Alexander himself had given some financial encouragement to the progress of research. More important was the stimulus provided for intellectual inquiry by the fusion of Chaldean and Egyptian science with the learning of the Greeks. Possibly a third factor was the new interest in luxury and comfort and the demand for practical knowledge which would enable man to solve the problems of a disordered and unsatisfying existence.

The next leap day is actually on February 29th, 2016 (this year).
This means that we have to add an extra day at the end of February every 4 years.
As you may know, the 28th is usually the last day of February, but due to the leap day, we add an extra day to make the overall days of one year 366 instead of the usual 365.
For this year (2016) the 100th day of the year is on April 9th.
On a 365 days calendar, the 100th day of the year is on April 10th.
