Correction to Formula 19 (Finding last Friday of the Month)

Wednesday 7 July 2010 @ 11:27 pm

I just heard from Roberto Brum from Brazil who found a way to simplify my Formula #19.  This is a formula that you can use to find the last Friday of any month (or any other weekday).  I liked his approach so I put it side by side with my original formula for testing.   For the most part they worked exactly the same, and the few differences I found were due to my own errors in the original formula.   So, not only is it more elegant, but it is also more accurate.  So I have now posted Roberto’s formula on the page above.  Many thanks, Roberto!
