//
// This header file defines abstractions for computing with "civil time".
// The term "civil time" refers to the legally recognized human-scale time
// that is represented by the six fields `YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss`. A "date"
// is perhaps the most common example of a civil time (represented here as
// an `absl::CivilDay`).
//
// Modern-day civil time follows the Gregorian Calendar and is a
// time-zone-independent concept: a civil time of "2015-06-01 12:00:00", for
// example, is not tied to a time zone. Put another way, a civil time does not
// map to a unique point in time; a civil time must be mapped to an absolute
// time *through* a time zone.
//
// Because a civil time is what most people think of as "time," it is common to
// map absolute times to civil times to present to users.
//
// Time zones define the relationship between absolute and civil times. Given an
// absolute or civil time and a time zone, you can compute the other time:
//
//   Civil Time = F(Absolute Time, Time Zone)
//   Absolute Time = G(Civil Time, Time Zone)
//
// The Abseil time library allows you to construct such civil times from
// absolute times; consult time.h for such functionality.
//
// This library provides six classes for constructing civil-time objects, and
// provides several helper functions for rounding, iterating, and performing
// arithmetic on civil-time objects, while avoiding complications like
// daylight-saving time (DST):
//
//   * `absl::CivilSecond`
//   * `absl::CivilMinute`
//   * `absl::CivilHour`
//   * `absl::CivilDay`
//   * `absl::CivilMonth`
//   * `absl::CivilYear`
//
// Example:
//
//   // Construct a civil-time object for a specific day
//   const absl::CivilDay cd(1969, 07, 20);
//
//   // Construct a civil-time object for a specific second
//   const absl::CivilSecond cd(2018, 8, 1, 12, 0, 1);
//
// Note: In C++14 and later, this library is usable in a constexpr context.
//
// Example:
//
//   // Valid in C++14
//   constexpr absl::CivilDay cd(1969, 07, 20);

//
// Each of these civil-time types is a simple value type with the same
// interface for construction and the same six accessors for each of the civil
// time fields (year, month, day, hour, minute, and second, aka YMDHMS). These
// classes differ only in their alignment, which is indicated by the type name
// and specifies the field on which arithmetic operates.
//
// CONSTRUCTION
//
// Each of the civil-time types can be constructed in two ways: by directly
// passing to the constructor up to six integers representing the YMDHMS fields,
// or by copying the YMDHMS fields from a differently aligned civil-time type.
// Omitted fields are assigned their minimum valid value. Hours, minutes, and
// seconds will be set to 0, month and day will be set to 1. Since there is no
// minimum year, the default is 1970.
//
// Examples:
//
//   absl::CivilDay default_value;               // 1970-01-01 00:00:00
//
//   absl::CivilDay a(2015, 2, 3);               // 2015-02-03 00:00:00
//   absl::CivilDay b(2015, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6);      // 2015-02-03 00:00:00
//   absl::CivilDay c(2015);                     // 2015-01-01 00:00:00
//
//   absl::CivilSecond ss(2015, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6);  // 2015-02-03 04:05:06
//   absl::CivilMinute mm(ss);                   // 2015-02-03 04:05:00
//   absl::CivilHour hh(mm);                     // 2015-02-03 04:00:00
//   absl::CivilDay d(hh);                       // 2015-02-03 00:00:00
//   absl::CivilMonth m(d);                      // 2015-02-01 00:00:00
//   absl::CivilYear y(m);                       // 2015-01-01 00:00:00
//
//   m = absl::CivilMonth(y);                    // 2015-01-01 00:00:00
//   d = absl::CivilDay(m);                      // 2015-01-01 00:00:00
//   hh = absl::CivilHour(d);                    // 2015-01-01 00:00:00
//   mm = absl::CivilMinute(hh);                 // 2015-01-01 00:00:00
//   ss = absl::CivilSecond(mm);                 // 2015-01-01 00:00:00
//
// Each civil-time class is aligned to the civil-time field indicated in the
// class's name after normalization. Alignment is performed by setting all the
// inferior fields to their minimum valid value (as described above). The
// following are examples of how each of the six types would align the fields
// representing November 22, 2015 at 12:34:56 in the afternoon. (Note: the
// string format used here is not important; it's just a shorthand way of
// showing the six YMDHMS fields.)
//
//   absl::CivilSecond   : 2015-11-22 12:34:56
//   absl::CivilMinute   : 2015-11-22 12:34:00
//   absl::CivilHour     : 2015-11-22 12:00:00
//   absl::CivilDay      : 2015-11-22 00:00:00
//   absl::CivilMonth    : 2015-11-01 00:00:00
//   absl::CivilYear     : 2015-01-01 00:00:00
//
// Each civil-time type performs arithmetic on the field to which it is
// aligned. This means that adding 1 to an absl::CivilDay increments the day
// field (normalizing as necessary), and subtracting 7 from an absl::CivilMonth
// operates on the month field (normalizing as necessary). All arithmetic
// produces a valid civil time. Difference requires two similarly aligned
// civil-time objects and returns the scalar answer in units of the objects'
// alignment. For example, the difference between two absl::CivilHour objects
// will give an answer in units of civil hours.
//
// ALIGNMENT CONVERSION
//
// The alignment of a civil-time object cannot change, but the object may be
// used to construct a new object with a different alignment. This is referred
// to as "realigning". When realigning to a type with the same or more
// precision (e.g., absl::CivilDay -> absl::CivilSecond), the conversion may be
// performed implicitly since no information is lost. However, if information
// could be discarded (e.g., CivilSecond -> CivilDay), the conversion must
// be explicit at the call site.
//
// Examples:
//
//   void UseDay(absl::CivilDay day);
//
//   absl::CivilSecond cs;
//   UseDay(cs);                  // Won't compile because data may be discarded
//   UseDay(absl::CivilDay(cs));  // OK: explicit conversion
//
//   absl::CivilDay cd;
//   UseDay(cd);                  // OK: no conversion needed
//
//   absl::CivilMonth cm;
//   UseDay(cm);                  // OK: implicit conversion to absl::CivilDay
//
// NORMALIZATION
//
// Normalization takes invalid values and adjusts them to produce valid values.
// Within the civil-time library, integer arguments passed to the Civil*
// constructors may be out-of-range, in which case they are normalized by
// carrying overflow into a field of courser granularity to produce valid
// civil-time objects. This normalization enables natural arithmetic on
// constructor arguments without worrying about the field's range.
//
// Examples:
//
//   // Out-of-range; normalized to 2016-11-01
//   absl::CivilDay d(2016, 10, 32);
//   // Out-of-range, negative: normalized to 2016-10-30T23
//   absl::CivilHour h1(2016, 10, 31, -1);
//   // Normalization is cumulative: normalized to 2016-10-30T23
//   absl::CivilHour h2(2016, 10, 32, -25);
//
// Note: If normalization is undesired, you can signal an error by comparing
// the constructor arguments to the normalized values returned by the YMDHMS
// properties.
//
// COMPARISON
//
// Comparison between civil-time objects considers all six YMDHMS fields,
// regardless of the type's alignment. Comparison between differently aligned
// civil-time types is allowed.
//
// Examples:
//
//   absl::CivilDay feb_3(2015, 2, 3);  // 2015-02-03 00:00:00
//   absl::CivilDay mar_4(2015, 3, 4);  // 2015-03-04 00:00:00
//   // feb_3 < mar_4
//   // absl::CivilYear(feb_3) == absl::CivilYear(mar_4)
//
//   absl::CivilSecond feb_3_noon(2015, 2, 3, 12, 0, 0);  // 2015-02-03 12:00:00
//   // feb_3 < feb_3_noon
//   // feb_3 == absl::CivilDay(feb_3_noon)
//
//   // Iterates all the days of February 2015.
//   for (absl::CivilDay d(2015, 2, 1); d < absl::CivilMonth(2015, 3); ++d) {
//     // ...
//   }
//
// ARITHMETIC
//
// Civil-time types support natural arithmetic operators such as addition,
// subtraction, and difference. Arithmetic operates on the civil-time field
// indicated in the type's name. Difference operators require arguments with
// the same alignment and return the answer in units of the alignment.
//
// Example:
//
//   absl::CivilDay a(2015, 2, 3);
//   ++a;                              // 2015-02-04 00:00:00
//   --a;                              // 2015-02-03 00:00:00
//   absl::CivilDay b = a + 1;         // 2015-02-04 00:00:00
//   absl::CivilDay c = 1 + b;         // 2015-02-05 00:00:00
//   int n = c - a;                    // n = 2 (civil days)
//   int m = c - absl::CivilMonth(c);  // Won't compile: different types.
//
// ACCESSORS
//
// Each civil-time type has accessors for all six of the civil-time fields:
// year, month, day, hour, minute, and second.
//
// civil_year_t year()
// int          month()
// int          day()
// int          hour()
// int          minute()
// int          second()
//
// Recall that fields inferior to the type's alignment will be set to their
// minimum valid value.
//
// Example:
//
//   absl::CivilDay d(2015, 6, 28);
//   // d.year() == 2015
//   // d.month() == 6
//   // d.day() == 28
//   // d.hour() == 0
//   // d.minute() == 0
//   // d.second() == 0
//
// CASE STUDY: Adding a month to January 31.
//
// One of the classic questions that arises when considering a civil time
// library (or a date library or a date/time library) is this:
//   "What is the result of adding a month to January 31?"
// This is an interesting question because it is unclear what is meant by a
// "month", and several different answers are possible, depending on context:
//
//   1. March 3 (or 2 if a leap year), if "add a month" means to add a month to
//      the current month, and adjust the date to overflow the extra days into
//      March. In this case the result of "February 31" would be normalized as
//      within the civil-time library.
//   2. February 28 (or 29 if a leap year), if "add a month" means to add a
//      month, and adjust the date while holding the resulting month constant.
//      In this case, the result of "February 31" would be truncated to the last
//      day in February.
//   3. An error. The caller may get some error, an exception, an invalid date
//      object, or perhaps return `false`. This may make sense because there is
//      no single unambiguously correct answer to the question.
//
// Practically speaking, any answer that is not what the programmer intended
// is the wrong answer.
//
// The Abseil time library avoids this problem by making it impossible to
// ask ambiguous questions. All civil-time objects are aligned to a particular
// civil-field boundary (such as aligned to a year, month, day, hour, minute,
// or second), and arithmetic operates on the field to which the object is
// aligned. This means that in order to "add a month" the object must first be
// aligned to a month boundary, which is equivalent to the first day of that
// month.
//
// Of course, there are ways to compute an answer the question at hand using
// this Abseil time library, but they require the programmer to be explicit
// about the answer they expect. To illustrate, let's see how to compute all
// three of the above possible answers to the question of "Jan 31 plus 1
// month":
//
// Example:
//
//   const absl::CivilDay d(2015, 1, 31);
//
//   // Answer 1:
//   // Add 1 to the month field in the constructor, and rely on normalization.
//   const auto normalized = absl::CivilDay(d.year(), d.month() + 1, d.day());
//   // normalized == 2015-03-03 (aka Feb 31)
//
//   // Answer 2:
//   // Add 1 to month field, capping to the end of next month.
//   const auto next_month = absl::CivilMonth(d) + 1;
//   const auto last_day_of_next_month = absl::CivilDay(next_month + 1) - 1;
//   const auto capped = std::min(normalized, last_day_of_next_month);
//   // capped == 2015-02-28
//
//   // Answer 3:
//   // Signal an error if the normalized answer is not in next month.
//   if (absl::CivilMonth(normalized) != next_month) {
//     // error, month overflow
//   }
