Wouldn't using Julian days prevent the ordinary problems involved with doing calendar math across a renumbering of the dates?
- dunham 2y agoThe mapping from year, month, day that I use (based on the Wikipedia page, but starting on march 1, 1600) doesn't take that gap into account. So the days in that gap exist for me, but we don't deal with dates that far back.
