In this brief note, we use Easter dates to walk “randomly ” on a sphere. Easter is a moving feast, and our aim in this brief note is to construct some æsthetic summary of the dates of Easter. 1 The date of Easter The date of Easter for a given year Y can be computed using various algorithms, for instance the one due to Gauss [1]. The version for the Julian calendar (until 1582) is the following: a ← Y mod 19 b ← Y mod 4 c ← Y mod 7 M ← 15 N ← 6 d ← (19a+M) mod 30 e ← (2b+4c+6d+N) mod 7 Julian Easter then takes place on March 22+ d+ e or April d+ e − 9. In the Julian calendar, the dates of Easter repeat in the same order after 532 years. In the Gregorian calendar, the computation of Easter has been made more complex and the same dates of Eas...
