I've tried cal -j 2006:2015 but cannot figure it out.

#!/bin/bash
# This script will test if we're in a leap year or not.

year=`date +%Y`

if [ $[$year % 400] -eq "0" ]; then
  echo "This is a leap year. February has 29 days."
elif [ $[$year % 4] -eq 0 ]; then
        if [ $[$year % 100] -ne 0 ]; then
          echo "This is a leap year, February has 29 days."
        else
          echo "This is not a leap year. February has 28 days."
        fi
else
  echo "This is not a leap year. February has 28 days."
fi

is a script that tests if the year of today is a leap year.
