The standard mentioned below which means GB/T 33661-2017 - Calculation and promulgation of the Chinese calendar. The lunar mentioned below which means this library.

All algorithms in the package are according to the standard to be implemented. And used ephemeris to calculate sun ecliptic longitude and moon ecliptic longitude.

Some earlier dates might not are satisfied with the outputs of the lunar, the lunar use astronomy algorithms to reach high-precision results. Like 8/25/1919 and 1/25/1944, these dates were the first dates of the lunar months in the real history, but they are not new moons according to astronomy algorithms. and 8/26/1919 and 1/26/1944 were new moons, they should were the first dates.

Including:

1. Calculate the solar term of a day, solar terms of year, 24 solar terms;
2. Calculate month and day of Chinese calendar, and leap months;
3. Calculate sexagesimal(celestial stem with terrestrial branch) of day, month and year;
4. Calculate zodiac of year.
