+h2. Problem
+
+You need to find the month and day of the Easter Sunday for given year
+
+h2. Solution
+
+The following function returns array with two elements: month (1-12) and day of the Easter Sunday. If no arguments are given
+result is for the current year.
+This is an implementation of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computus#Anonymous_Gregorian_algorithm in CoffeeScript

+  d = ~~(b / 4)

+  n = h + l - 7 * m + 114
+  month = ~~(n / 31)
+  day = (n % 31) + 1

+
+h2. Discussion
+
+NB! Javascript numbers months from 0 to 11 so .getMonth() for date in March will return 2, this function will return 3.
+You can modify the function if you want this to be consistent.
