Enter dates in the birth date and chart date fields to display the
biorhythms chart.  For further information about biorhythms select
the  (Help | History) option from the menu.  The chart date entered
by the user is marked by the center line and each hash mark represents
a day along the line.

This program is a simple demonstration of the features available to
a programmer using Zinc Application Framework.  The intent of the program
is to present programmers with ideas and solutions to programming with
Zinc Application Framework.

History
According to the theory of biorhythms, life consists of three repeated
cycles.  The emotional cycle (shown in red on the graph) repeats every
23 days.  The cognitive or intellectual cycle (shown in blue on the graph)
repeats every 28 days.  The physical cycle (shown in green on the graph)
repeats every 33 days.

Each cycle begins at birth and rises to a HIGH then drops to a LOW and then
back during the given period of the cycle.

A sin(x) function is used to plot the rise and fall of the cycles around
the chart date.  A 'pseudoSin' is used in the source code to avoid
linking in the floating point library (resulting in a smaller .EXE size).

The number of days since the user's birth date is computed by finding
the Julian Date (defined as 'a day count starting at 1200 UT on
1 January -4713' by the U.S. Naval Observatory) for the birth date and
subtracting it from the Julian Date of the chart date.  The algorithm
used in the code is accurate for any date after January 1, 1700 and
uses only integer arithmetic.  It can also be used to find the day of
the week.
