Make sure that whatever algorithm you get takes the following
into account about leap years:
a) Any year divisible by 4 is a leap year, unless
b) it is divisible by 100 as well, in which case it is NOT a leap
year, unless
c) it is divisible by 400 as well, in which case it is a leap year
after all.
What stupid rules!
Thanks to Geoff and John here for this scintillating info on leap
year calculation,
