[edit] Timekeeping

There are 365.2422 solar days in the mean tropical year. Several solar calendars have a year containing 365 days. Related to this, in Ontario, the driver's license learner's permit used to be called "365" [1][2] because it was valid for only 365 days. Financial and scientific calculations often use a 365-day calendar to simplify daily rates.
