Today, we are going to learn about
easter_date.
So, what is easter_date() in PHP?
The
easter_date() function returns the Unix timestamp for midnight on Easter of a specified year.
Syntax of this function:
easter_date(year)
year - defines the year to calculate the midnight on Easter from. If the year parameter is omitted, the current year is used.
(optional)
Note: If the year is outside of the range for Unix timestamps (before 1970 or after 2037), this function will generate a warning. The easter_days() function can be used instead of easter_date() to calculate Easter for years which fall outside the range.
Example
It shows the basic use of this function.
PHP Source Code
<?php
echo"<br />";
echo"<br />";
echo"<br />";
?>
The complete code.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<?php
echo(easter_date());//no date format
echo"<br />";
echo(date("M-d-Y", easter_date(2000)));//year of 2000
echo(date("M-d-Y", easter_date(2001)));//year of 2001
echo(date("M-d-Y", easter_date(2002)));//year of 2002
?>
This is the output of the codes above.
