+# The Challenge
+
+#       Write a script to display months from the year 1900 to 2019 
+#       where you find 5 weekends i.e. 5 Friday, 5 Saturday and 5 Sunday.
+
+# Let's look at an example of such a month.
+
+#    March 2019
+#
+#  M   T   W   T   F   S   S 
+#                  1   2   3 
+#  4   5   6   7   8   9  10 
+# 11  12  13  14  15  16  17 
+# 18  19  20  21  22  23  24 
+# 25  26  27  28  29  30  31 
+
+# A four-weekend month fits in 28 days, so that could be any month,
+# but as we see here, we need 3 more days, so we need a 31 day month,
+# and it only works if the month starts on Friday.
+
+# 30 days have September (9)
+# April (4), June (6) and November (11)
+# And February (2) is right out
+
+my @months = (1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 10, 12);
+
+# We only need one DateTime object.
+# We'll set the month, day and year as needed
