Common year starting on Friday


A common year starting on Friday is any non-leap year (i.e. a year with 365 days) that begins on Friday, 1 January, and ends on Friday, 31 December. Its dominical letter hence is C. The most recent year of such kind was 2010 and the next one will be 2021 in the Gregorian calendar or, likewise, 2011 and 2022 in the obsolete Julian calendar, see below for more.

any common year starting on Friday (dominical letter C)

This is the only year type where the nth "Doomsday" (this year Sunday) is not in ISO week n; it is in ISO week n-1.

In the (currently used) Gregorian calendar, the 15 types of years repeat in a 400-year cycle (20871 weeks). Forty-three common years per cycle or exactly 10.75% start on a Friday. The 28-year sub-cycle does only span across century years divisible by 400, e.g. 1600, 2000, and 2400.

In the now-obsolete Julian calendar, the 15 types of years repeat in a 28-year cycle (1461 weeks). Each leap-year dominical letter occurs exactly once and every common letter thrice.

The final two digits of Julian years repeat after 700 years, i.e. 25 cycles. When starting to count in 2001 for instance, every 10th, 21st and 27th year (equivalent to #21, #27 and #10 in the table) of these Julian cycles is a common year that starts on a Friday, i.e. ca. 10.71 % of all years. They are always 6 or 11 years apart.
