IComparable

Since durations can specify a number of weeks, months, and/or years, additional properties and methods are available to support those options. Methods are also present that can convert an ISO 8601 formatted string to a duration object and back to a string.

Since the definition of a month and year varies, the class allows the specification of the length of time in days for a month and a year. By default, it uses 30 days for a month, and 365 days for a year. To guarantee a consistent definition of a duration, you can limit the maximum units to weeks when converting the duration to a string.
