## Description

This class is the primary interface for programming with greogorian dates. The is a lightweight type that can be freely passed by value. All comparison operators are supported.

### `date` construct/copy/destruct

1.     date();

2.     date(year_type y, month_type m, day_type d);

3.     date(const ymd_type & ymd);

4.     date(const date_int_type & rhs);

5.     date(date_rep_type rhs);

6.     date(special_values sv);

### `date` public member functions

1.     date_int_type julian_day() const;

2.     day_of_year_type day_of_year() const;

3.     long modjulian_day() const;

4.     int week_number() const;
