#include<stdio.h>
int main(){
   int i,noofdays;
   int first;
   printf("enter no of days in a month:
");    scanf("%d",&noofdays);    printf("enter first day in a month:
");    scanf("%d",&first);    for(i=1;i<first;i++)       printf(" ");    for(i=1;i<=noofdays;i++){       printf("%3d",i);       if((first+i-1)%7==0)          printf("
");    }    return 0; }

Output

enter no of days in a month:

             1 2 3 4
 5  6  7  8  9 10 11
