In general, days of the week advance one day per year (on the same day/month). For leap years, days from first of January to the 28th of February will jump TWO days if it is a leap year.

For example, January 1st 1900 was a Monday. January 1st 1901 was a Tuesday (note that 1900 was NOT a leap year).
So whats the answer tuesday?
