Bug description:Php Calendar does not calculate number of days correctly
Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.jewishtojd
---
In using the JewishToJD function of the Calendar,
there is a discrepancy in the total days of the year.
The last month of the Jewish Year has 29 days
and the shortest year is 353 days.
Test script:
---------------
<?PHP
$year = "5777";
$firstDate = "1/1/$year";
$lastDate = "13/30/$year";
$count=1;
calculateTotalDays($firstDate, $lastDate, $year, $count);
$firstDate = "1/1/$year";
$lastDate = "13/29/$year";
$count=1;
calculateTotalDays($firstDate, $lastDate, $year, $count);
function calculateTotalDays($firstDate, $lastDate, $year, $count)
{
$count++;
$displayYear = $year;
list($firstMonth, $firstDay, $firstYear) = explode("/",$firstDate);
list($lastMonth, $lastDay, $lastYear) = explode("/",$lastDate);
if ($year < 0)
{
$firstYear = $firstYear + 248;
$lastYear = $lastYear + 248;
//echo "less than 0 => $year<br />";
}
$firstDay = jewishtojd( $firstMonth, $firstDay, $firstYear );
$lastDay = jewishtojd ( $lastMonth, $lastDay, $lastYear );
$totalDaysInYear = $lastDay - $firstDay;
//echo "$firstDate, $lastDate <br />";
//echo "Cycle Count -> $count | Total Days in the Year $year => ";
echo "$displayYear ";
echo "$totalDaysInYear";
echo "<br />";
}
?>
Expected result:
----------------
It is expected that when calculating between 1/1/577 to 13/29/577 the
return should be 353 days as that is the number of days in the Jewish
year 5777.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hebrew_calendar#Leap_years
>> Scroll up to see a list of new year dates. <<
This appears to occur in all versions of PHP.
Actual result:
--------------
Yet the provided code will output 352 days if 13,29,5777 is entered
and 353 days if 13,30,5777 is entered. Note: the month of Elul which
is given the number 13 is a 29 day month.
The output is as follows:
5777 353
5777 352
