Cal is indeed excellent, even showing that the rules defined for leap
years earlier in this thread are not correct.  If it was as simple as
divisible by 100 but not divisible by 400 = not leap year then:

cal 2 1500

should not show February having 29 days, which it does.

To get a clue as to why this is correct, try

cal 9 1752
