/// An instant in time, such as July 20, 1969, 8:18pm GMT.
///
/// DateTimes can represent time values that are at a distance of at most
/// 100,000,000 days from epoch (1970-01-01 UTC): -271821-04-20 to 275760-09-13.
///
/// Create a `DateTime` object by using one of the constructors
/// or by parsing a correctly formatted string,
/// which complies with a subset of ISO 8601.
/// **Note:** hours are specified between 0 and 23,
/// as in a 24-hour clock.
///
/// For example:
/// ```dart
/// final now = DateTime.now();
/// final berlinWallFell = DateTime.utc(1989, 11, 9);
/// final moonLanding = DateTime.parse('1969-07-20 20:18:04Z'); // 8:18pm
/// ```
///
/// A `DateTime` object is anchored either in the UTC time zone
/// or in the local time zone of the current computer
/// when the object is created.
///
/// Once created, neither the value nor the time zone
/// of a `DateTime` object may be changed.
///
/// You can use properties to get
/// the individual units of a `DateTime` object.
/// ```
/// print(berlinWallFell.year); // 1989
/// print(berlinWallFell.month); // 11
/// print(berlinWallFell.day); // 9
/// print(moonLanding.hour); // 20
/// print(moonLanding.minute); // 18
/// ```
/// For convenience and readability,
/// the `DateTime` class provides a constant for each `day` and `month`
/// name - for example, [august] and [friday].
/// You can use these constants to improve code readability:
/// ```dart
/// final berlinWallFell = DateTime.utc(1989, DateTime.november, 9);
/// print(DateTime.november); // 11
/// assert(berlinWallFell.month == DateTime.november);
/// assert(berlinWallFell.weekday == DateTime.thursday);
/// ```
///
/// `Day` and `month` values begin at 1, and the week starts on `Monday`.
/// That is, the constants [january] and [monday] are both 1.
///
/// ## Working with UTC and local time
///
/// A `DateTime` object is in the local time zone
/// unless explicitly created in the UTC time zone.
/// Use [isUtc] to determine whether a `DateTime` object is based in UTC.
///
/// ```dart
/// final dDay = DateTime.utc(1944, 6, 6);
/// print(dDay.isUtc); // true
///
/// final dDayLocal = DateTime(1944, 6, 6);
/// print(dDayLocal.isUtc); // false
/// ```
/// Use the methods [toLocal] and [toUtc]
/// to get the equivalent date/time value specified in the other time zone.
/// ```
/// final localDay = dDay.toLocal(); // e.g. 1944-06-06 02:00:00.000
/// print(localDay.isUtc); // false
///
/// final utcFromLocal = localDay.toUtc(); // 1944-06-06 00:00:00.000Z
/// print(utcFromLocal.isUtc); // true
/// ```
/// Use [timeZoneName] to get an abbreviated name of the time zone
/// for the `DateTime` object.
/// ```
/// print(dDay.timeZoneName); // UTC
/// print(localDay.timeZoneName); // e.g. EET
/// ```
/// To find the difference
/// between UTC and the time zone of a `DateTime` object
/// call [timeZoneOffset].
/// ```
/// print(dDay.timeZoneOffset); // 0:00:00.000000
/// print(localDay.timeZoneOffset); // e.g. 2:00:00.000000
/// ```
///
/// ## Comparing DateTime objects
///
/// The `DateTime` class contains methods for comparing `DateTime`s
/// chronologically, such as [isAfter], [isBefore], and [isAtSameMomentAs].
/// ```
/// print(berlinWallFell.isAfter(moonLanding)); // true
/// print(berlinWallFell.isBefore(moonLanding)); // false
/// print(dDay.isAtSameMomentAs(localDay)); // true
/// ```
///
/// ## Using DateTime with Duration
///
/// Use the [add] and [subtract] methods with a [Duration] object
/// to create a `DateTime` object based on another.
/// For example, to find the point in time that is 36 hours after now,
/// you can write:
/// ```dart
/// final now = DateTime.now();
/// final later = now.add(const Duration(hours: 36));
/// ```
///
/// To find out how much time is between two `DateTime` objects use
/// [difference], which returns a [Duration] object:
/// ```
/// final difference = berlinWallFell.difference(moonLanding);
/// print(difference.inDays); // 7416
/// ```
///
/// The difference between two dates in different time zones
/// is just the number of nanoseconds between the two points in time.
/// It doesn't take calendar days into account.
/// That means that the difference between two midnights in local time may be
/// less than 24 hours times the number of days between them,
/// if there is a daylight saving change in between.
/// If the difference above is calculated using Australian local time, the
/// difference is 7415 days and 23 hours, which is only 7415 whole days as
/// reported by `inDays`.
///
/// ## Other resources
///
///  * See [Duration] to represent a span of time.
///  * See [Stopwatch] to measure timespans.
///  * The `DateTime` class does not provide internationalization.
///  To internationalize your code, use
///  the [intl](https://pub.dev/packages/intl) package.
