Introduction

For centuries, one of the most important mathematical tasks in Europe was to accurately calculate the date of Easter. The formulas to calculate this

date was known as a computus. Notice that the word computer and computus both originate from the same root. In fact, some of said that calculating

the date of Easter was the first "computer" program. In this assignment, you will write a simple program to calculate the date of Easter for any year a

user inputs.

Expectations

Your program should do the following tasks:

Ask the user for the year they would like to find the date of Easter for.

Calculate the date of easter for that year. Build a function that performs this calculation.

Print out the message $($using F$-$strings$)$: "The date of Easter for $\{$year$\}$ is $\{$date$\}".$

Gauss's Easter Computus Algorithm

a$-$year mod $19$

b$-$year mod $4$

c$-$year mod$7$

$k-$floor$($year$/100)$

$p=$ floor $(\frac{13+8^{**}k}{25})$

$q=$ floor $(\frac{k}{4})$

$M=(15-p+k-q)mod30$

$N=(4+k-q)mod7$

$d=({19}^{**}a+M)mod30$

$e=(2^{**}b+4^{**}c+6^{**}d+N)mod7$

April$-$d$+$e$-9$

$($Optional$)$ If $d=28,e=6,$ and April$=$April$-7$

$($Optional$)$ If $d=29$ and $e=6,$ April$=$April$-7$

If April$>0,$ then Easter is in April otherwise Easter is in March

If Easter is in March, the date is March$=22+$d$+$e

Notes

The syntax to calculate xmody is $x\%y$

The syntax to calculate floor $(\frac{x}{y})$ is $\frac{x}{\frac{?}{?}}y$

Steps $12$ and $13$ require slightly more complex coding than we've covered so far. While technically required for the proper calculation, I won't take

out if you skip these steps
