Dates
DESCRIPTION:
From the early 1970s up to nowadays the system date routines of computers usually mix up date with time calculations. Not only that they will expire sooner or later due to number overflow. Not only that this will make calendarian calculations extremely complicated. Fact is, that this will combine two things together which don't have anything to do with each other: The rotation of the earth around itself and the rotation of the earth around the sun, which in addition will both vary during the chiliads. So how will you be able to do date calculations if you then even try to consider time gimmicks like summer/winter time changes, leap-seconds and so on? Just forget it!
This project gives you very short pure date routines that are the fastest ones that you can get, because they don't need any looping for doing their calculations, and they do their calculations from 1/1/0 up to 12/31/9999. Of course they precisely consider the transition from Julian to Gregorian calendar. ;-)
