The Köchel number Kn of a composition by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is its index in the ordered set compiled by Ludwig von Köchel in the conjectured chronological order of composition. 25Kn+10 approximates Mozart's age at time of writing reasonably well for n100 (thus 25Kn+1766 approximates the year).
