A leap week calendar is a calendar system with a whole number of weeks in a year, and with every year starting on the same weekday.

The day of the week can be easily calculated given a date's Julian day number (JD, i.e. the integer value at noon UT): Adding one to the remainder after dividing the Julian day number by seven (JD modulo 7 + 1) yields that date's ISO 8601 day of the week. For example, the Julian day number of 14 February 2025 is 2460721.

The table includes Julian calendar years, but the algorithm is for the Gregorian and proleptic Gregorian calendar ...
A common year is a calendar year with 365 days, as distinguished from a leap year, which has 366 days. [1] More generally, a common year is one without intercalation.The Gregorian calendar (like the earlier Julian calendar) employs both common years and leap years to keep the calendar aligned with the tropical year, which does not contain an exact number of days.
