NAME

cal − print calendar

SYNOPSIS

cal [ [ month ] year ]

DESCRIPTION

cal prints a calendar for the specified year.  If a month is also specified, a calendar just for that month is printed.  If neither is specified, a calendar for the present month is printed.  The month is a number between 1 and 12.  The year can be between 1 and 9999.  The calendar produced is that for England and the United States. 

NOTES

An unusual calendar is printed for September 1752.  That is the month 11 days were skipped to make up for lack of leap year adjustments.  To see this calendar, type: cal 9 1752

The command cal 83 refers to the year 83, not 1983. 

The year is always considered to start in January even though this is historically naive.
