%N Years in which there are five Sundays in the month of February.
%C "The Gregorian calendar has been in use in the Western world since 1582 by Roman Catholic countries and since 1752 by English speaking countries. The Gregorian calendar counts leap years every year divisible by 4, except for centuries not divisible by 400, which are not leap years." - The Mathematica Book
%C Because the days of the week of the Gregorian calendar repeat every 400 years, the first differences of this sequence have period 13: [28, 40, 28, 28, 40, 28, 28, 28, 28, 28, 28, 40, 28]. - _Nathaniel Johnston_, May 30 2011
