In addition to Bill's comments, which covered most things I think...

You *do* know that in C the "/" operator will do *integer* division
unless one of the quantities is floating point, right? So there's no
need for all of those "(int)" casts.
And I'd be inclined to give my variables meaningful names, rather than
"g", "c", "h" and "i"...
Oh, and since I'm in the dot-syntax-is-evil camp, s/self.year/[self
year]/g in Bill's code :-D :-D
Of course, not everyone agrees with me on that (there are many
respected developers on both sides of the argument), but I *intensely*
dislike the fact that the syntax looks like member variable access
(though if you look closely, of course, it becomes apparent that it
isn't) while simultaneously sending messages---which can in general
have side effects.
(As you've probably realised by now, a lot of the changes being
suggested are stylistic.)
Kind regards,
Alastair.
