cannot be made only at the beginning of the cycle, so they cannot be made
the first year of the century only once in 1900 years. It may be seen from

the reason that that is the first century which is a multiple of 19. The
next centurial year that is exactly divisible by 19, is 3800. Therefore,
none of the corrections for the next 1900 years, will occur on the first
