Hi, I'm trying to iterate over a range of dates and print them out. Here's how I am doing it in Ruby:
'require 'date'
now = Date.parse('2011-07-11') end_date = Date.parse('2011-12-31')
(now..end_date).each do |d| # print out a date that looks like: # Monday, July 11, 2011 puts "#{d.strftime('%A, %B %d, %Y')}" end
I've been looking at the docs for Data.Time.Format and Data.Time.Calendar and am a bit puzzled at where to begin. Anyone have ideas? I've not found many (any?) examples of time and date manipulation in Haskell.
