The formulae:
a = Year mod 4 <br>b = Year mod 7 <br>c = Year mod 19 <br>d = (19c + 15) mod 30 <br>e = (2a + 4b - d + 34) mod 7 <br>f = Int((d + e + 114) / 31) <br>g = ((d + e + 114) mod 31) + 1 <br>f is the month of Pascha. <br>g is the day of Pascha. For example, if f is 3 and g is 27, then Pascha occurs on March 27.
Important, this returns the date of Pascha ONLY on the [[Old Calendar]]. To get the Gregorian date, add 13 days.
