*** Calender Trick ********* Share First know this code for 20th century 144 025 036

146 , easy to remember square of 12 , square of 5 , square of 6 and 146 !

In the above code each digit represents a month ...starting from right ...1 for Jan, 4 for Feb, 4 for March...0 for April ...2 for may..5 for june...etc Then remember another code that is sunday =1, monday=2 , tuesday=3 etc ..till saturday = 0.. Now, let us take the example : What day it was on 15/08/1947 ? Follow the below given steps : 1. write last two digits of the year ................... 47

2. no. of leap years till 1947 .....(47/4 = 11 take only quotient) = 11 3. write code of the month ...august (refer code) .......= 03 4. write the day.....................................15 5. add all the four ....47 + 11 + 03 + 15 = 76 6. divide the sum always by 7 = 76/7 and take the remainder. here the remainder is 6, now refer to the second code , 6 = friday. so, 15 /08/1947 was Friday ! with little practice you will be able to calculate in mind...as you are doing simple addition and division!!!!!!! code for 21st century : 033 614 625 035 How to write code for any century on our own?? >> for all future centuries, codes go on subtracting 1 from previous codes...& for all past centuries, codes go on adding 1.. so...future is -1, past is +1 NOTE: If you subtract 1 from 0 we get 6 here...it is called MOD7.
