It would also appear that if you ask a stupid question you may get a stupid answer.

May you say? This is ATOT, it's a guarantee!

Today is the 16th day of this year. Last year was a leap year, with 366 days. So pretend that today is the 16 + 366 = 382nd day of last year.

382 - 173 = 209. So the day you are looking for was Julian day 209. For a leap year, that corresponds to July 27. More.

There are other ways to get your answer, but this is relatively straightforward and works for arbitrary inputs.

not so. Most of the time posters would just come in and mock the op. You are one of the few that actually give stupid answers
