One can readily see that, in a given year, the last day of February and March 1 are a good test dates. As an aside note, if we have a three-digit number abc, where a, b, and c are the digits, each nonpositive if abc is nonpositive; we have (abc) mod 7 = 9*a + 3*b + c. Repeat the formula down to a single digit.
Years are given in astronomical year numbering. Augustus corrected errors in the observance of leap years by omitting leap days until AD 8. Julian calendar dates before March AD 4 are proleptic, and do not necessarily match the dates actually observed in the Roman Empire. [1]
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 366th day (or 13th month) is added to keep the calendar year synchronised with the astronomical year or seasonal year . [ 1 ]
The rule is that if the year is divisible by 100 and not divisible by 400, the leap year is skipped. The year 2000 was a leap year, for example, but the years 1700, 1800, and 1900 were not. The ...

If a year is divisible by 100 but not divisible by 400, we skip the leap year. For example, 2000 was a leap year but 1700, 1800, and 1900 were not. The next skipped leap year will be in 2100.
Bissext, or bissextus (from Latin bis 'twice' and sextus 'sixth') is the leap day which is added to the Julian calendar every fourth year and to the Gregorian calendar almost every fourth year to compensate for the almost six hour difference in length between a common calendar year of 365 days and the average length of the solar year.
