I have a better alogrithm

the Um-al-qura alg has several limitations

it uses tables, and work within small period
and maybe it uses too big numbers or even worst float numbers (I'm not

the other alg in ITL is taken from EMACS and it has
it works for any extreme day but it has a big limitation
Ramadan is always 30 days
