How many working days in year 2003?

Here is the detail of the calculation:

Because 2003 is not a leap year, it has 365 days.

Let's remove 52 saturdays and 52 sundays. It remains 261 days.

Here is the list of these 9 public holidays:

1. Nytårsdag : Wednesday, 1 January, 2003
2. Skærtorsdag : Thursday, 17 April, 2003
