(the Gregorian calendar doesn't define this as it doesn't define what a week is). The calendar implemented in this program is the standard US calendar, which is not the Gregorian calendar, but a calendar derived from it/extending it. -The- internationally recognized calendar is the -ISO- calendar, which is different from the Gregorian calendar in several ways.
