Re: [Kinda OT] Could somebody double check this?

Okay, so now I've done a bit of tweaking to my solar longitude 
calculations, and I'm now off 0.99 degrees on average from Calendrical 
Calculations book (And you'll also notice an overflow problem somewhere 
in the middle)

However, I found this site: http://www.moshier.net/aadoc.html.
When I ran this program and got the number for the Sun, most of my 
calculations were within 0.05 degrees difference! So now I'm trying to 
decide who to trust...

Does anybody know if there's a good table/calculator for this kind of 
numbers that I can use to check my results? I'm also looking one for 
lunar longitudes (I've written lunar_longitude() as well, but that's 
about 13 degrees off from Calendrical Calculations :(
