Introduction

I recently made the transition from Delphi to C#. I noticed that some of the datetime utilities that I used to use were not available in C#. So I recreated them. Hopefully this will save someone some time in the future.

The Code

using System;
namespace Concepts2Code.Utilities
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Common DateTime Methods.
    /// </summary>
    /// 

    public enum Quarter
    {
        First = 1,
        Second = 2,
        Third = 3,
        Fourth = 4
    }

    public enum Month
    {
        January = 1,
        February = 2,
        March = 3,
        April = 4,
        May = 5,
        June = 6,
        July = 7,
        August = 8,
        September = 9,
        October = 10,
        November = 11,
        December = 12
    }
