ABSTRACT A RULE was lately mentioned to me by a friend for finding, almost by inspection, the day of the week for any given year and day of any month in that year, during the present

future, except indeed for the eighteenth century, in which the introduction of the new style requires a special treatment. Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This is a preview
