#‎Painted_Sides_of_Cubes

=>For a cube of side n x n x n

Cube For 0 sides painted, => (n-2)^3

Cube For 1 side painted => 6(n - 2)^2

For cube with 2 sides painted, => 12(n-2)For the cubes with 3 sides painted, it will always be 8. The eight painted cubes are the 8 corners of any and all cubes.

=>For cuboid of side a x b x c

0 side painted => (a-2)(b-2)(c-2)

1 side painted => 2[ (a-2)(b-2) + (b-2)(c-2) + (a-2)(c-2) ]

2 side painted => 4(a+b+c -6)

3 side painted => 8


Doomsday Algo

Doomsday =Anchor+  Q (Y/12)+ Rem (Y/12) +Q( Rem /4)

Y= last 2  digit of a year 

Doomsday = last day of feb= 4/4=6/6=8/8=12/12 of a year 

Anchor for 1900-1999=wednesday  2000-2999=thursday

Q.  what day is 17th Aug of 1984? 

anchor = wed

Y=84 , Y/12=7

doomsday=  wed+ 7=wed

so 8 th aug is wednesday 

17-8=9  9/7 = 1 week 2 days

so 17 th aug 1984 is friday :)
