         # allow the program to calculate holidays either by given (fixed)    #
         # month and day, or by day of a given week.  Adjustments may also be #
         # provided for when fixed date holidays fall on weekends, but are    #
         # observed either the day before or after, as well as days like the  #
         # day after Thanksgiving (USA).                                      #
