The two algorithms, worked for 2035

Western: the Anonymous Gregorian algorithm
a=2 b=20 c=35 d=5 e=0 f=1 g=6 h=2 i=8 k=3 l=1 m=0
h + l − 7m + 114 = 117, and 117 ÷ 31 = 3 remainder 24: month 3, day 24 + 1. March 25
Orthodox: Meeus’s Julian algorithm
a=3 b=5 c=2 d=23 e=2
d + e + 114 = 139, and 139 ÷ 31 = 4 remainder 15: Julian April 16. Plus 13 days: April 29
