Iterate over each Day between StartDate and EndDate [duplicate]
Solution 1:
for(DateTime date = StartDate; date.Date <= EndDate.Date; date = date.AddDays(1))
{
...
}
The .Date is to make sure you have that last day, like in the example.
Solution 2:
An alternative method that might be more reusable is to write an extension method on DateTime and return an IEnumerable.
For example, you can define a class:
public static class MyExtensions
{
public static IEnumerable EachDay(this DateTime start, DateTime end)
{
// Remove time info from start date (we only care about day).
DateTime currentDay = new DateTime(start.Year, start.Month, start.Day);
while (currentDay <= end)
{
yield return currentDay;
currentDay = currentDay.AddDays(1);
}
}
}
Now in the calling code you can do the following:
DateTime start = DateTime.Now;
DateTime end = start.AddDays(20);
foreach (var day in start.EachDay(end))
{
...
}
Another advantage to this approach is that it makes it trivial to add EachWeek, EachMonth etc. These will then all be accessible on DateTime.
