DESCRIPTION
Date::Business provides the functionality to perform simple
date manipulations quickly. Support for calendar date and
business date math is provided.
Business dates are weekdays only. Adding 1 to a weekend
returns Monday, subtracting 1 returns Friday. User defined
Holidays are supported.
Date::Business works very well for iterating over dates,
and determining start and end dates of arbitray n business day
periods (e.g. consider how to perform a computation for
a series of business days starting from an arbitrary day).
$end = new Date::Business(); # today
$start = new Date::Business($end, -10); # 10 business days ago
while (!$start->gt($end)) {
compute_something($start);
$start->nextb();
}
