Calculates the local date of the Easter day for years up to 9999.

Install

For NodeJS and JS bundlers:

``bash
npm i @jsbits/easter-day


or


yarn add @jsbits/easter-day
`

or load easterDay in the browser:

`html

`

$3

- ES5 compatible browser
- NodeJS v4.2 or later

easterDay(year) ⇒ Date

Calculates the local date of the Easter day –aka _Pascha_ or
_Resurrection Sunday_– for years between 100 and 9999 in the
Gregorian calendar, based on Oudin's algorithm.

Easter always falls on a Sunday between March 22 and April 25, inclusive.

NOTE: The result for years less than 1583 _could be inaccurate_.

This is a good algorithm, but calculating the Easter is not an exact
science or something consensuated, so expect discrepancies with older
or future implementations.

| Param | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| year | number | Year for the desired date, between 100 and 9999 |

Returns: Date - Local date instance for the Easter day

Since 1.1.3

Group: date
