It provides a perpetual calendar since the Gregorian calendar moves in cycles of 400 years. This algorithm for mental calculation was devised by John Conway[1][2] after drawing inspiration from Lewis Carroll's work on a perpetual calendar algorithm.[3][4] It takes advantage of the fact that each year has a certain day of the week (the doomsday) upon which certain easy-to-remember dates fall; for example, 4/4, 6/6, 8/8, 10/10, 12/12, and the last day of February all occur on the same day of the week in any given year. Applying the Doomsday algorithm involves three steps: This technique applies to both the Gregorian calendar A.D. and the Julian calendar, although their doomsdays will usually be different days of the week.

The algorithm is simple enough for anyone with basic arithmetic ability to do the calculations mentally. Conway can usually give the correct answer in under two seconds.

Around 1908 Chan suffered a stroke and retired, leaving Ip Man's kung fu instruction to be continued by his senior kung fu brothers such as Ng Jung-So.
