The kurup is a period of 120 tahun, or lunar years. There are thus 1440 lunar months, or 15 windu in a kurup. One day is dropped from the last month of Besar having 30 days, resulting in the last windu of the kurup having one less day than usual. Thus, the total number of days in a kurup is 42,524 (2,835 days in a windu x 15 windu - 1 day ...
A leap year (also known as an intercalary year or bissextile year) is a calendar year that contains an additional day (or, in the case of a lunisolar calendar, a month) compared to a common year.

The best known of these is the Tabular Islamic calendar: in brief, it has a 30-year cycle with 11 leap years of 355 days and 19 years of 354 days. In the long term, it is accurate to one day in about 2,500 solar years or 2,570 lunar years. It also deviates from observation by up to about one or two days in the short term.
As mentioned, leap years typically take place every four years. That means the next leap years coming up after 2024 are 2028, 2032, 2036, 2040, 2044 and 2048. But again, it's not quite that easy.

The Babylonians applied the 19-year cycle in the late sixth century BCE. [5] Intercalation of leap months is frequently controlled by the "epact", which is the difference between the lunar and solar years (approximately 11 days). The classic Metonic cycle can be reproduced by assigning an initial epact value of 1 to the last year of the cycle ...
That resulted in the years 1700, 1800, and 1900 losing their leap day, but 2000 adding one. Every other fourth year in all of these centuries would get it's Feb. 29. And with that the calendrical ...
Blocks that spell out Leap Year. If it seems like 2023 just flew by, we are at least in for a longer year in 2024. That's because 2024 is a leap year which means we gain a whole extra day.
