/** @defgroup date_basics Date Basics
This page summarizes some of the key user types and functions needed
to write programs using the gregorian date system. This is not a
comprehensive list, but rather some key types to start exploring.
**/
/** @defgroup date_alg Date Algorithms / Generators
Date algorithms or generators are tools for generating other dates or
schedules of dates. A generator function starts with some part of a
date such as a month and day and is supplied another part to then
generate a final date.
**/
/** @defgroup date_format Date Formatting
The functions on these page are some of the key formatting functions
for dates.
**/
//File doesn't have a current purpose except to generate docs
//and keep it changeable without recompiles
/*! @example days_alive.cpp
Calculate the number of days you have been living using durations and dates.
*/
/*! @example days_till_new_year.cpp
Calculate the number of days till new years
*/
/*! @example print_month.cpp
Simple utility to print out days of the month with the days of a month. Demontstrates date iteration (date_time::date_itr).
*/
/*! @example localization.cpp
An example showing localized stream-based I/O.
*/
/*! @example dates_as_strings.cpp
Various parsing and output of strings (mostly supported for
compilers that do not support localized streams).
*/
/*! @example period_calc.cpp
Calculates if a date is in an 'irregular' collection of periods using
period calculation functions.
*/
/*! @example print_holidays.cpp
This is an example of using functors to define a holiday schedule
*/
/*! @example localization.cpp
Demonstrates the use of facets to localize date output for Gregorian dates.
