Year    : 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017
Odd day : 1    2    1    1    1    2    1    1    1    2    1

For every ordinary year number of odd days = 1 odd day

For leap year number of odd days = 2 odd days.

If the odd days sum=7 implies odd days=0 then again loop starts from 1,2,3,4,..7 .
2008,2012,2016 are clearly leap years,

therefore
2007=1 odd day,
2008=2 (SUM=3),
2009=1 (SUM=4),
2010=1 (SUM=5),
2011=1 (SUM=6),
2012=2 odd days (SUM=8)
[HERE OBSERVE THAT SUM OF ODD DAYS EXCEEDING THE VALUE 7 THEREFORE CONTINUE ADDING THE ODD DAYS TILL WE GET A NUMBER WHICH IS DIVISIBLE BY 7],

2013=1 (SUM=9),
2014=1 (SUM=10),
2015=1 (SUM=11),
2016 = 2 odd days (SUM=13),

2017=1 (SUM=14)
upto 2017 SUM OF ODD DAYS = 14 divisible by 7 implies next year i.e.,2018 will have same calender as 2007 .
