# Next Full Moon Examples

n = NextFullMoon()
# Iterate through all next full moon from "now"
print(n.next_full_moon())
print(n.next_full_moon())
# Restart from "now"
print(n.reset().next_full_moon())
print(n.next_full_moon())
# Change the origin to 1998-07-12
print(n.set_origin_date_string('1998-07-12').next_full_moon()) # PRINT: 1998-08-07
print(n.next_full_moon()) # PRINT: 1998-09-06
# Reset the origin to 1998-07-12
n.reset()
print(n.next_full_moon()) # PRINT: 1998-08-07
# Reset the origin to "now"
print(n.set_origin_now().next_full_moon())

i = IsFullMoon()
# Check if "now" if full moon
print(i.is_full_moon())
# Check if "1998-07-12" is full moon
print(i.set_date_string('12/07/1992', '%d/%m/%Y').is_full_moon()) # PRINT: False
