This book will explain the mathematical details behind the Jewish
calendar and Easter calculation with a mathematical proposal to fix
the Jewish Calendar from an actuary. In addition, we will explore
the mathematics behind the Mayan calendar, Islamic calendar, and
our everyday calendar, the Gregorian calendar. First, I will
demonstrate how the Jewish calendar works, and how to convert dates
between the Jewish calendar to the Gregorian/Julian calendar. I
will then explain the Easter calculation and demonstrate how to use
the methods from the Easter calculation to fix the Jewish calendar
so that the Jewish calendar stays consistent with the solar cycle.
In 1582, there were two competing proposals to reform the Julian
calendar. I will explain the mathematics behind the two proposals.
I will explain the proposal that placed Washington, DC on the 77th
meridian.
