Hi All,

I have dates:-

02/11/2011
25/12/2011
09/12/2011
13/12/2011

and I have to check these dates one by one between 01/11/2011 and 15/12/2011.

If any one of above dates lies between given date than it should return a value showing date existing and non-existing e.g(1 for non-existing and 0 for non-existing ) and loop should not move more . please help me how to do it.

Thanks

Solution 2

List<DateTime> list = new List<DateTime> { Convert.ToDateTime("02/11/2011"), Convert.ToDateTime("25/12/2011"), Convert.ToDateTime("09/12/2011"), Convert.ToDateTime("13/12/2011") };


        foreach(var date in list)
        {
            if ((date.CompareTo(Convert.ToDateTime("01/11/2011")) > 0) && (date.CompareTo(Convert.ToDateTime("15/12/2011")) < 1))
            {
                //return value
                break;
            }

        }

How you Can Compare the perticular date 01/11/2011,15/12/2011

D.M. Abdur Rahim 17-May-16 3:45am

((date.CompareTo(Convert.ToDateTime("01/11/2011")) >= 0) && (date.CompareTo(Convert.ToDateTime("15/12/2011")) < 1))

Solution 3

C#

protected void FindDate()
    {
        DateTime d1 = new DateTime(2011, 11, 2);
        
        DateTime StartDate = new DateTime(2011, 11, 01);
        DateTime EndDate = new DateTime(2011, 12, 15);
        int DayInterval = 1;

        List<datetime> dateList = new List<datetime>();
        while (StartDate.AddDays(DayInterval) <= EndDate)
        {
            StartDate = StartDate.AddDays(DayInterval);
            dateList.Add(StartDate);
            if (StartDate == d1)
            {
                Response.Write(d1.ToString() + " Exist");
            }
        }        
    }

You are having all the dates between 2 dates is in StartDate variable.

hemu2123 11-Jan-13 8:03am

Mukund Thakker 11-Jan-13 8:09am

Write following code to get all the dates between 2 dates
while (StartDate.AddDays(DayInterval) <= EndDate)
{
StartDate = StartDate.AddDays(DayInterval);
Response.Write(StartDate.ToString());
}

thanku sir
if i insert date with the help of textbox then we first calculate day interval???

Mukund Thakker 11-Jan-13 8:30am

DayInterval would always be 1 as we need to increment one by one.

hemu2123 11-Jan-13 8:30am

Oh!..

C#

bool InBetween(
    ref System.DateTime toTest, 
    ref System.DateTime start,
    ref System.DateTime end) {
        return (start < toTest) && (toTest < end);
        //or, depending on how you define "between":
        return (start <= toTest) && (toTest <= end);
}

As parameter type is a value type, data is passed by reference for the sake of performance, but none of the parameters is actually modified through its reference. If you remove "ref", the code will give the same results.

In other words, the type System.DateTime supports comparison and order relationship using the customary comparison operators. This is the most readable and maintainable way of performing comparison. Please see:

You can use the Time Period Library for .NET[^]:

C#

// ----------------------------------------------------------------------
public void CheckDateBetweenDatesSample()
{
  DateTime[] moments = new[]
    {
      new DateTime( 2011, 11, 02 ),
      new DateTime( 2011, 12, 25 ),
      new DateTime( 2011, 12, 09 ),
      new DateTime( 2011, 12, 13 )
    };

  TimeRange timeRange = new TimeRange( 
    new DateTime( 2011, 11, 01 ), 
    new DateTime( 2011, 12, 15 ) );

  Console.WriteLine( "time range: {0}", timeRange );
  foreach ( DateTime moment in moments )
  {
    Console.WriteLine( "{0:d} is inside: {1}", 
      moment, 
      timeRange.HasInside(moment) ? "1" : "0" );
  }
} // CheckDateBetweenDatesSample
