MS Excel incorrectly assumes that the year 1900 is a leap year.Surprisingly, Excel does have a few bugs; this is one of its most famous.It actually started because Lotus 123 counted 1900 as a leap year. Excel used the same serial date system used by Lotus 123, thereby making it easier for users to move spreadsheets from one program to the other.Although this bug could be corrected, many problems would ensue as a result, including almost all dates in Excel worksheets being decreased by one day.
