Fun fact : 1700, 1800 and 1900 are not leap years, but 2000 is. Every hundred years, if the year in question can be divided by 100 and by 400 then it's a leap year (1600 and 2000 for example). Otherwise it's not. Found that by accident while training :) Thanks for the great skill Mike!!

Neil Degrasse Tyson has an of the cuff explanation about this on The Joe Rogan Experience. The Gregorian calendar was designed to accurately keep the solstice from drifting over time (like the previous Julian calendar) so those rules remove a leap-year every 100 years coz now there's too many days and add one every 400 coz now not enough and again remove a day every 1000 coz too many... All of that done by priests with a firm understanding of maths and astronomy... And some dbags still think the world is flat 😔

It was about 15 years ago when I First encountered with this method. There was an elderly guy always sitting in front of a shop watching people passing by. My schoolmates and I used to walk pass him on our way back home. He used to ask us for a random date and would have told us which day it was instantly. I really started appreciating his talent after I read about the method in a math tricks book I got from the library. Not gonna lie, Since then I always felt sorry why such a talented mind has to just sit on a street all day everyday.

I've also learned: lots of magic tricks (Chris Ramsey tutorials), riding a unicycle, walking on my hands, coin rolling, cartwheels, 1 handed, then no-handed. 1 thing I cannot do is juggle and it pi**es me right off.

John Conway (famous mathematician, though to the general public mostly known for Conway's game of life) who invented this method set up his PC so that it would ask him a question like this every time he tried to log in and would only let him pass when he answered it correctly. Eventually, he got so good at this that he was able to do it in under 2 seconds for any date. I heard he was great at parties since he knew quite a few tricks like that.

Another method : a year is 365 days =52 weeks + 1 day, so year by year the day count advances by 1, and by 5 in a 4-year block (accounting for leaps). But divided-by-100 years don't have leaps, so that a change of 124 or 5 for 100 years after removing 7s, but divided-by-400s do, so 400 years have a change of 500-3=497 or no change. Things to remember : 1st jan 2000 was a saturday, and that 31-day months advance day by 3, and 30-day months by 2. Feb normally doesn't change as it is 28 days, but +1 in leaps. Go.

Worked with a guy with special needs at a home for people with disabilities and he had this ability. We would introduce him to new staff by having them tell their birthday and year and he would think hard and ALWAYS get it right. It was a cool ice breaker. We gave him a fake date once, I believe it was a leap year and day that never existed and after thinking hard as usual he stood up and jumped and said "No, No, No" with a huge smile on his face. Watch the movie Rain Man and it's basically his character. He loved dates and days. Also TV Program guides. Newspapers. A lot of other date related things.

the calendar was changed from Julian to Gregorian in 1752. When looking at days of the week for dates before that, the internet has mixed results. you should try dates before 1000 and see if you get it right. I couldn't. the Doomsdays before 1700 have a pattern of Tue-wed-thu-fri-sat-sun-mon and so on. the pattern we saw on Numberphile was Tue-wed-fri-sun. What do you think?

I was born on a thursday, good vid btw. Just like you i am also an expert with the days of the week. I know about leap years and for example if something like february 11th was on a sunday, that would mean next year it would either be monday or tuesday depending on whether its a leap year. It just contains calculation tbh. So glad we finally got a challenge like this, keep it up!

This is a super cool video, thanks mike. I love your channel because it always gives me an outlet for my anxiety to go and try some of the things you've done in your past videos or try to learn different stuff I'm actually going to go and check out the original video that you recommended at the beginning of this video to see if maybe I can learn myself. That's a cool little trick 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻

This is cool. Like people who know how to flip a coin and can call it correctly dozens of times in a row. But basically everything you do no matter what is 50/50, either you are right or you are wrong! I like the nerdy stuff though, first time I got excited in school about something was in junior high when the teacher would play this game and just rattle off different things and you would have to raise your hand fast and answer it, she would say 7 times 7 plus 2 divided by 3, and on and on and made them harder, only me and two other kids played and it was fun and competitive and the rest of them just sat there waiting to leave. I also want to learn a language in a few months so I am glad videos are popping up for that type of stuff along with this.
