The idea
When the items are dates or names, count something about them — days, letters, or position. Day counts are the usual test.
Shortcut. Knuckle rule: months landing on a knuckle have 31 days — January, March and July do; June falls in a hollow, 30 days.
Common trap. "July" — sitting right after June, it is easy to assume it shares June's 30 days; July and August both have 31.
