   Apr 26, 2020 · Doomsday method: Year code = 0, Century adjustment = 3, so Doomsday was a Wednesday in 1900. Closest Doomsday = Jan. 3 (since 1900 isn’t a leap year), so January 30 (27 = 28 – 1 days later) was a Tuesday.

   Order of operations refers to the rule that explains the sequence of steps necessary for correctly evaluating a mathematical expression or math problem. You will use the acronym PEMDAS to help recall the correct order, or priority, in which you complete mathematical operations.

   Luckily, there exists a method, devised by John Conway, to calculate the day of the week of any given day, known as The Doomsday Algorithm. With a little memorization and some practice, you can calculate an answer without needing a phone or an online calendar.

   How to use doomsday device to calculate day of the week?

   • In order to show you how to use your Doomsday Device to calculate the day of the week of any given date, let us first try a simple worked example: Rotate the slotted discs to expose three numbers that add up to the year, 2134. That is, 2100 + 24 + 10. Other numbers might appear in two of the slots. They can be ignored.

   What is the Doomsday algorithm?

   • Conway sought out to create an algorithm that was relatively easy and simple enough for people to learn and use on their own. His method was popularized nearly a century later in 1973. The Doomsday Algorithm takes advantage of the fact that our current calendar system, the Gregorian Calendar, repeats every 400 years.

   What are 'Doomsdays'?

   • Conway noticed that each year, there were certain dates that always fell on the same day of the week, which he called “Doomsdays” (DDs. For example, in 2021, October 10th, November 7th, and December 12th, all fell on a Sunday (full list on Table 1).

   How do you calculate a year code in a doomsday system?

   • So, for example, 3 days after Saturday is a Tuesday, and 6 (Saturday) + 3 is equivalent to 2 (Tuesday) modulo 7. In both the apocryphal and Doomsday systems, if we write the year in question as CCYY, the last 2 digits YY will determine a Year Code and the first 2 digits CC will determine a Century Adjustment.

   Are Doomsdays easier to remember than month codes?

   • On the other hand, the (basic) Doomsdays are easier to remember than the month codes, thanks to Conway’s nifty mnemonics. And if you commit additional Doomsdays to memory, it will speed things up accordingly (the apocryphal method does not admit such added flexibility).
