Hijri Islamic Calendar converting functions, based on an enhanced algorithm
designed by Muayyad Saleh Alsadi.
It can be used to implement applications, gdesklets or karamba ..etc
.
This algorithm is based on integer operations which that there is no round
errors (given accurate coefficients) the accuracy of this algorithm is based
on 3 constants (p, q and a) where p/q is the full months percentage [ gcd(p,q)
must be 1 ] currently it is set to 191/360 which mean that there is 191 months
having 30 days in a span of 360 years, other months are 29 days, and a is just
a shift.
