Date-time library for Common Lisp
|
|
|
|
This library contains a fairly comprehensive set of functions to handle dates with somewhat weaker support for date-times. It is useful for applications where dates are an important data type e.g., business or financial calculations.
|
|
|
|
Features provided are:
|
|
- Conversion from a string to date: a wide variety of date time formats are accepted (see test-parse-date.lisp for examples)
|
|
- Printing dates in various formats
|
|
- Computation of special dates / datetimes - Easter, Spring / Autumn equinoxes, Summer / Winter Solstice
|
|
- Date arithmetic including support for business dates (holiday processing)
|
|
- Date comparisons
|
|
- Miscellaneous date functions e.g., computing the 3rd Wednesday of a month
|
|
|
|
The library does not have any dependencies on third party libraries and is provided under a BSD licence.
