It will convert a Julian Day Number to a Gregorian date, and vice
versa. Other date-related functions in U2:
Date plus or minus a number of days
Number of days between two dates
Weekday name for any Gregorian date
Ordinal day_of_year for any Gregorian date
The date of Easter for any year
Date of nth weekday for any month and year
The last one is a little unusual. It lets you calculate the date for
a holiday that falls, for example, on the second Monday in October
(Thanksgiving in Canada). Used as a subroutine in frame HOLIDAYS.
