[avr-libc-dev] [bug #44327] eu_dst() is broken

[Mark Moore]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #44327 (project avr-libc):

The current algorithm misfires if the month starts on a Thursday, in which
case d is calculated to be 31, when it should have been 24. 
Adding the following after line 91 fixes it:

if(d==31) d=24;



it does impact the elegance of the algorithm somewhat, and probably
performance, but only on months that start on a thursday ;)

I have attached a python script that runs the algorithm 31*7 times, simulating
each day of a month (0-30) being each day of the week (0-6), the script prints
out an error if any calculation doesn't match the hard-coded truth table.
