Calculate Easter date for a given year, traditionally celebrated on the first Sunday after the [Paschal full moon](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecclesiastical_full_moon), using the ["Meeus/Jones/butcher" algorithm](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computus).

## Installation

To install as a dependency:

```

npm install pascua

```

## Usage

`pascua` exports a single function that takes an optional `integer` between 1583 and 4099 for the year.

```js

import pascua from "pascua";

// Easter date for the current year

const easter = pascua();

// Easter date for 1984

const easter1984 = pascua(1984);

```

The function will return an object with the following properties:

| Property     | Description                             |

| ------------ | --------------------------------------- |

| `year`       | Year                                    |

| `month`      | Month                                   |

| `day`        | Day                                     |

| `toString()` | Returns a formatted string `YYYY-MM-DD` |
