Date of Easter in JavaScript

A couple of years ago, I posted source code in F# for calculating the date of Easter. Well, that time of year is here again, but this time around I'll post a JavaScript example.

As before, the method is from Butcher's Ecclesiastical Calendar (1876). I present it in the form given in Peter Duffett-Smith's Practical Astronomy With Your Calculator (Cambridge 1981, the 1988 version is still available from Amazon, et al). And once again, I'd like to add that Mr. Duffett-Smith's books are among the most fun and interesting math books you'll ever find!

I'm no JavaScript wiz, but I did test it in both MSIE7 and Chrome. However, as always, this code is presented “as-is” and without warranty or implied fitness; use at your own risk.

function easterForYear (year) {
  var a = year % 19;
  var b = Math.floor(year / 100);
  var c = year % 100;
  var d = Math.floor(b / 4); 
  var e = b % 4;
  var f = Math.floor((b + 8) / 25);
  var g = Math.floor((b - f + 1) / 3); 
  var h = (19 * a + b - d - g + 15) % 30;
  var i = Math.floor(c / 4);
  var k = c % 4;
  var l = (32 + 2 * e + 2 * i - h - k) % 7;
  var m = Math.floor((a + 11 * h + 22 * l) / 451);
  var n0 = (h + l + 7 * m + 114)
  var n = Math.floor(n0 / 31) - 1;
  var p = n0 % 31 + 1;
  var date = new Date(year,n,p);
  return date; 
}
