Comments

Each of the 26 letters of the (English) alphabet, encoded as a->1, b->2, ... , z->26, appears a(n) times in the string of all the (English) names of the days of the week. The letters are taken case insensitive.

Examples

			a(1) = 8 because the letter a (or 'A'), encoded as 1, appears 8 times in the names of the seven days, namely 7 times in '...day' and once in 'Satur...'. Similarly for the letter 'd' with a(4) = 8, which appears, besides 7 times in '...day', once in 'Wednes...'.
The letter 'y' appears a(25) = 7 times in '...day'.
There is no letter 'b' (or 'B') in the names of the days, hence a(2)=0.
