The documentation for the day parameter is inconsistent with the maharbote function. The maharbote function documentation specifies "1 = Sunday, 7 = Saturday" to clarify the day numbering system, but the tatyout function only specifies "where 7 = Saturday". For consistency and clarity, consider adding "where 1 = Sunday" to match the pattern used in maharbote.

The error message ends with a period, which is inconsistent with other error messages in the codebase. All other error messages in the library (e.g., "Age and day must be numbers" in tatyout.js, "Invalid date or month input" in zodiac.js, "Year and day must be numbers" in maharbote.js) do not end with periods. For consistency, remove the trailing period.

The README states "Node.js (v14 or higher recommended)" but the package.json specifies "node": ">=12.0.0". These should be consistent. Either update the README to say v12 or higher, or update package.json to require >= 14.0.0 if v14 is truly the recommended minimum. Note that Number.isInteger and Number.isFinite are available in Node.js 0.12+, so v12 should work, but the documentation should match the actual requirement.
