The algorithm for Ash Wednesday does not refer to a specific algorithm but rather to the method of calculating the date of Ash Wednesday in the Christian liturgical calendar. Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of Lent, occurring 46 days before Easter Sunday. The date is determined using the formula established by the Council of Nicaea in 325 AD, which set Easter as the first Sunday after the first full moon following the vernal equinox. Consequently, Ash Wednesday is calculated based on this Easter date.
