17 This method was ported from the work done by GM Arts,
18 on top of the algorithm by Claus Tondering, which was
19 based in part on the algorithm of Ouding (1940), as
20 quoted in "Explanatory Supplement to the Astronomical
21 Almanac", P. Kenneth Seidelmann, editor.
23 This algorithm implements three different Easter
24 calculation methods:
26 1. Original calculation in Julian calendar, valid in
27 dates after 326 AD
28 2. Original method, with date converted to Gregorian
29 calendar, valid in years 1583 to 4099
30 3. Revised method, in Gregorian calendar, valid in
31 years 1583 to 4099 as well
33 These methods are represented by the constants:
35 * ``EASTER_JULIAN = 1``
36 * ``EASTER_ORTHODOX = 2``
37 * ``EASTER_WESTERN = 3``
39 The default method is method 3.
41 More about the algorithm may be found at:
43 `GM Arts: Easter Algorithms <http://www.gmarts.org/index.php?go=415>`_
