How do you convert a julian date back to a calender date??
First you have to tell us what you mean by a julian date.
The dictionary definition is:
"a serial number equal to the number of days elapsed since January 1, 4713
B.C., proposed by Joseph Scaliger in 1582 and used in astronomical
calculations: January 1, 1965, at noon, Greenwich Civil Time, was Julian Day
2,438,762.0"
but sometimes different definitions are used here.
