Century Parameter Processing

Dates containing a century of 00 are processed by the date and time routines with a century of 19 or 20, as determined by the century parameter in the configuration file in the univ.cfg file located in the $LAWDIR/system directory. However, most routines do not change the century field in the input date. Only 500-DATE-COMPARE, 501-CHECK-LEAP-YEAR, 510-DATE-EDIT, 520-COMPUTE-JULIAN, and 900-IS-DATE-INVALID replace a century of 00 by storing the century in the input data.
