This is pretty much a complete rewrite. It displays the current year, but that can be changed by specifying the desired year on the command line. It MAY even be sensitive enough to locale to produce output in languages other than English.
Calendar
This program prints out a calendar for any year. You must specify the starting day of the week of the year:
- 0: Sunday
- -1: Monday
- -2: Tuesday
- -3: Wednesday
- -4: Thursday
- -5: Friday
- -6: Saturday
You can determine this by using the program WEEKDAY. You must also make two changes for leap years. The program listing describes the necessary changes. Running the program produces a nice 12-month calendar.
The program was written by Geoffrey Chase of the Abbey, Portsmouth, Rhode Island.
