PDA hacking

[katster]

Amused with myself.

Managed an elegant hack to get my PDA to show Thanksgiving on the proper date every year. :)

Unfortunately, writing a sane algorism to do Easter is unfortunately beyond my grasp.

This is appropriate because we're hacking on calendars for XML class, which got me to explore the PDA calendaring system better.

I am *such* a geek. :)

If you have a phases of the moon program, Easter is the Sunday after the first full moon after the spring Equinox, I think :)

Well, yeah. Is there a phases of the moon program that intergrates with the calendar?

To know when Easter is, you have to know the Golden Number. Isn't that special?

(Personally, I think we should just always have it the first Sunday in Passover and let another faith do the heavy lifting.)
