Arduino Day of Year Function
/*
toDayOfYear
This sketch demonstrates a function to convert the year, month, day
format to the day of the year. Leap years are corrected. Unit tests
include leap year and regular year tests for every month as well as
corner case and error case testing.

I love the function you to get the day of the year but I ran into one issue. When using the RTCLib and you pass in now.day(),now.month(),now.year() it does not return the DOY it returns 999 and I cannot figure out why. Any idea?
