An invaluable resource for working programmers, as well as a fount
of useful algorithmic tools for computer scientists, astronomers,
and other calendar enthusiasts, The Ultimate Edition updates and
expands the previous edition to achieve more accurate results and
present new calendar variants. The book now includes coverage of
Unix dates, Italian time, the Akan, Icelandic, Saudi Arabian Umm
al-Qura, and Babylonian calendars. There are also expanded
treatments of the observational Islamic and Hebrew calendars and
brief discussions of the Samaritan and Nepalese calendars. Several
of the astronomical functions have been rewritten to produce more
accurate results and to include calculations of moonrise and
moonset. The authors frame the calendars of the world in a
completely algorithmic form, allowing easy conversion among these
calendars and the determination of secular and religious holidays.
LISP code for all the algorithms is available in machine-readable
form.
