TimeSpan.Xt

First of all many thanks to Kizitonwose for the original idea and already awesome library!

This .NET Standard 2.0 library shall help to reduce code like

dotnet add package TimeSpan.Xt

var dayInMillis = 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000;				// Represent a day in milliseconds
var inFiveDays = DateTime.Now + TimeSpan.FromDays(5);
var oneWeekAgo = DateTime.Now - TimeSpan.FromDays(7);

How to use

using TimeSpan.Xt;

var fiveCenturies = 5.Centuries();				// uses precise calculation: 		1 Century == 36500 days
var fiveCenturiesAccumulated = 5.Centuries(true);		// uses accumulated calculation: 	1 Century == 36525 days
var tenDecades = 10.0.Decades();				// uses precise calculation: 		1 Decade == 3650 days
var tenDecadesAccumulated = 10.0.Decades(true);			// uses accumulated calculation: 	1 Decade == 3652.5 days
var twoYears = 2.Years();					// uses precise calculation: 		1 Year == 365 days
var twoYearsAccumulated = 2.Years(true);		        // uses accumulated calculation: 	1 Year == 365.25 days
var oneWeek = 1.Weeks();
var threeDays = 3.Days();
var elevenHours = 11.Hours();
var sixMinutes = 6.Minutes();
var fiftySeconds = 50.Seconds();
var hundredMilliSeconds = 100.Milliseconds();

var oneDayInMillis = 1.Days().InMilliseconds();    		// Converts one day into milliseconds and returns the double value => 86400000
var twoWeeksInHours = 2.Weeks().InHours(); 		    	// Converts two weeks into hours and returns the double value => 336
var thirtyFiveDaysInWeeks = 35.Days().InWeeks(); 		// Converts 35 days into weeks and returns the double value => 5

var addition = 1.Days() + 12.Hours() + 30.Minutes();
var difference = 34.Minutes() - 240.Seconds();
var multiplication = 2.Weeks() * 2;
var division = 2.Minutes() / 2;

var inFiveDays = DateTime.Now + 5.Days();
var yesterday = DateTime.Now - 24.Hours();
var oneWeekAgo = DateTime.Now - 1.Weeks();

Since TimeSpan.Xt is directly interchangable with TimeSpan, it can be used in all places where you would normally use TimeSpan, e.g.

Task.Delay(5.Seconds())
