Summary
Adds a
quartermethod to date/time.ActiveSupport has existing
beginning_of_quarterandend_of_quartermethods. This PR addsquarterto complete the conceptual symmetry.For dates we have
year/beginning_of_year/end_of_year. Same formonth,week, etcI think this feature is useful outside of "financial" applications that use fiscal year math; Rails applications of all varieties and business domains include reports and data aggregations based on quarters.
Since ActiveSupport has an opinion on the "quarter boundaries" (the traditional [3, 6, 9, 12] months), it makes sense to also have a matching
quartermethod.
