Moon phase calculation library?

[Radoslav Bielik]

Hello everyone, I wanted to make a simple moonphase application for my Windows based smartphone, showing the current moonphase, and possibly other information too (moon calendar, moonrise and set times, etc). However, I can't find any C# code or library for these calculations (just some python and Java). Does anyone know about anything (a .NET library or C# code?) I'd be very grateful! Thanks, Rado

Unless you can find an oss app to steal from you're going to have to do this yourself. The actual formulas should be findable without too much effort, but this is too obsure a role to have a dedicated public library available.

Radoslav, you may want to ask Siamak[^] or the author of MoonPhase[^] for the algorithm. Good luck! /ravi My new year's resolution: 2048 x 1536 Home | Music | Articles | Freeware | Trips ravib(at)ravib(dot)com

Thanks Ravi, I'll try that. Actually, I've already seen Siamak's website, and was thinking that maybe I could write him if I don't find anything else, so it seems that will be the way to go. :-) I also found a nice Java mobile application - which does much more than the moon phase calculation - it's a compass for navigating by sun/moon position on the sky. I've been thinking that I may try to port that into C# and create a smartphone version, just for fun. It works on a smartphone too, but still could be improved. But I'm not sure I have enough time for that. :sigh: Rado
