How to encode the answer? If no statements are true, write the word 'NONE' (without the quotes). Otherwise take the set of true statements and write it as a set of ranges. E.g. the set {1,2,3,7,9,100,101} is encoded as 1-3,7,9,100-101

letters
Puzzle ID: letters

How many letters does the _shortest_ correct answer to this puzzle contain?

The answer for this puzzle consists of two lines, containing respectively:
- the ID of this puzzle
- your exact answer

century
Puzzle ID: century

The twentieth century ended on 31. 12. 2000, which was a Sunday. Looking into the future, on which days of the week won't any century ever end?

Remember that leap years are those divisible by 400 plus those divisible by 4 but not by 100. (1996 was a leap year, so was 2000, but 2100 won't be a leap year and neither will 2047.)

The answer for this puzzle consists of two lines, containing respectively:
- the ID of this puzzle
- the days of the week on which no century will ever end

The exact form of the answer is a comma-separated list of three-letter abbreviations of the days in the order in which they appear in a week. E.g. if the answer were Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, write the string 'Mon,Tue,Wed' (without the quotes).
