Abstract

Here are two programs, written to demonstrate ALGOL and COBOL. Object: to determine the month and day of Easter, given the year. The ALGOL program (1) is written as a procedure, which sets up "month" and "day" given the value of "year." The COBOL program (2) prepares a printed table of Easter date, from 500 to 4999 A.D.
