To determine the Orthodox Easter Sunday date, it is first necessary to find the Julian Easter Sunday date, then to add the number of days which have been "skipped" in the Gregorian calendar.
This procedure is a dramatic and accurate simplification of the official procedure used to calculate Easter Sunday dates, as described in Christian Prayer Books.

To convert the Julian date to the Gregorian date, it is necessary to add the number of days shown in Table F. Step 4 must be ignored if the Easter Sunday date calculated after step 3 occurred when the Julian calendar was still in use. The example for year gives the Julian Easter Sunday date of April 10, and Table F shows that we need to add 13 days to convert it to the Gregorian calendar date of April BASIC code is fairly straightforward, and can easily be converted to other programming languages.
