5. Date Calculation
Last but not list translate your answer,

0 represent Saturday 1 represent Sunday
and so on.
6. Century Formula
C.F. = Century divide by 4. ex 20/4 remi = 0 = 6 or (-1)
If reminder
0 = 6(-1)
1= 4
2= 2
3= 0
.
7. Year Formula
If year = 70
Year Code. = Year /4 = (17) quotient +
year / 7 (0) Reminder
Again, quotient + reminder 7 = 17+0=7 = 3
(Reminder) so
Day = Tuesday
Note: Quotient + Reminder / 7 and count the
reminder as a day
