week, which is a Wednesday. The second date is 23 August 1972.
Our key number for August is 3, which we add to 23, giving 26.
The key number for the year 1972 is 6, which added to 26 gives us
a total of 32. Subtracting all the sevens ( 4 x 7 = 28) from 32 we
arrive at 4. The 4th day of the week is a Wednesday, which is the
day for 23 August 1972.
The only exception to this rule occurs in leap years, and then
only in the months of January and February. Your calculations will
be identical, but for these two months the day of the week will be
one day earlier than the day you calculate. As with other systems,
the best way to gain confidence with those discussed in this chapter
is to practise them. I suggest that you start with the easier of the
two, become skilled in it, and then graduate to the more advanced.
