Calendar class question

I was wondering if someone could explain something that while not a big
deal, I would not mind understanding why. When I set the Month field
with the set command with the value 1 and then use get to read it back,
it reads it as 0 and not 1.

-------------

GregorianCalendar d = new GregorianCalendar();

d.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH,1);
d.set(Calendar.MONTH,2);
d.set(Calendar.YEAR,2004);
d.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR,32);

System.out.printf("%d-%d-%d\nDayOfYear =
%d\n",d.get(Calendar.MONTH),d.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_ MONTH),d.get(Calendar.YEAR),d.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_ YEAR));
