%N Number of years after which it is possible to have a date falling on same day of the week, but the entire year does not have the same calendar, in the Julian calendar.

%C In the Julian calendar, a year is a leap year if and only if it is a multiple of 4 and all century years are leap years.

%C Assuming this fact, this sequence is periodic with a period of 28.

%C These are the terms of A231000 not in A231001.

%C The statement about the period is misleading: this is the sequence of (positive) numbers congruent to 5 or -5 (mod 28). It is strictly increasing, not periodic; the sequence a(n) - 28*floor(n/2) is 2-periodic. - _M. F. Hasler_, Apr 14 2015
