Module:Calendar date/recurring

--[[

Calculates the Gregorian date of a recurring holiday that varies year-to-year, but follows the rule "Nth [day of week] of [month]"

"month" = month number (1 to 12) "weeknumber" = number of week (1 to 4, or -1 to mean "last") "dayofweek" = number that represents the day of the week, where 1 = Sunday and 7 = Saturday "year" = Gregorian calendar year ]]
