I know the title of this post ain't that great and TBH I couldn't come up with something better. So what is this program about. A few days back a friend of mine celebrated his birthday. I was wondering how do I find all the years when, his birthday and mine fall on the same day of the week. It was not a great question, but it piqued me and I wrote a rudimentary program for it on my phone. While this is not the same code I wrote it is kinda similar. I will be writing it in Python as that is the language I'm most comfortable in right now. I'll be using the trusty 'datetime' utility in python for this task.

Point being I tried but nothing worked. Now you'll say that in the title
