It is Thanksgiving day weekend for our friends & readers in USA. That means a good portion of our readers are relaxing with their family and having a good meal. Naturally, we celebrated thanksgiving at our home (we pretty much celebrate any festival as long as eating good food is one of its rituals). I am too tempted to leave the blog un-updated until Tuesday next week, but then I remembered about remaining good portion of our readers, that is you.
So, here is a simple quiz for you.
Find in which year thanksgiving day occurs on the same date again
using Excel Formulas, of course.
See this short demo to understand what I have in mind:

Thanksgiving day is celebrated on 4th Thursday in November, every year. See how to calculate Thanksgiving day using excel formulas.
Go ahead and find a solution, then post it using comments.

Thanks so much for this, it's utterly brilliant!
Silly question - I assume LAMDA will work with dynamic arrays?
Very much so. Many of the new functions like MAP only make sense in the context of dynamic arrays and Lambda functions.
As usual, very informative material. Easy to understand and apply!
Thanks for making everyone awesome!
Easy to understand Lambda function through this tutorial. Thanks Chandoo.
I have Officce 365 (updated), but I can't see LAMBDA function. 🙁
I dont see "Office Insider" option in my excel 365.
Another option for First Monday...
=LAMBDA(anydate,WORKDAY.INTL(EOMONTH(anydate,-1),1,"0111111"))
Loving the binary options in WORKDAY.INTL David...
