| | This method was ported from the work done by GM Arts, |
| | on top of the algorithm by Claus Tondering, which was |
| | based in part on the algorithm of Ouding (1940), as |
| | quoted in "Explanatory Supplement to the Astronomical |
| | Almanac", P. Kenneth Seidelmann, editor. |
| | |
| | This algorithm implements three different Easter |
| | calculation methods: |
| | |
| | 1. Original calculation in Julian calendar, valid in |
| | dates after 326 AD |
| | 2. Original method, with date converted to Gregorian |
| | calendar, valid in years 1583 to 4099 |
| | 3. Revised method, in Gregorian calendar, valid in |
| | years 1583 to 4099 as well |
| | |
| | These methods are represented by the constants: |
| | |
| | * ``EASTER_JULIAN = 1`` |
| | * ``EASTER_ORTHODOX = 2`` |
| | * ``EASTER_WESTERN = 3`` |
| | |
| | The default method is method 3. |
| | |
