An Alternative Algorithm That Indicates The Time At Which The Sun Will Set

Abstract

In this paper, an approach is taken in creating an algorithm that indicates the time at which the sun will set that is different from a current algorithm that is used today in odrder to compare and contrast accuracies. The algorithm is based on three variables: time, longitude, and latitude. Earth and its relationship with sunlight are described in terms of vectors, and planes in spherical and Cartesian coordinates.
