It appears that the number of Friday the 13th's is determinable given that
we know what day Jan 1 falls on and whether the year is a leap year or not.
Adding these numbers for each year being considered provides an answer to
the ubiquitous question "is Friday the 13th more frequently occurring than
any other day". But what do I know? :} (This is a metaphorical question
relating my own experiences to the philsophical and transcendental plane of
corporeal existence and hence, not needing a response.)
As time permits I will perform the necessary calculations and provide the
algorithm.
