#
# ParseDate munches on a date and turns it into an array of values.
#
#
# ParseDate converts a date into an array of values.
# For example:
#
# require 'parsedate'
#
# ParseDate.parsedate "Tuesday, July 6th, 2007, 18:35:20 UTC"
# # => [2007, 7, 6, 18, 35, 20, "UTC", 2]
#
# The order is of the form [year, month, day of month, hour, minute, second,
# timezone, day of the week].
require 'date/format'
module ParseDate
#
# Parse a string representation of a date into values.
# For example:
#
# require 'parsedate'
#
# ParseDate.parsedate "Tuesday, July 5th, 2007, 18:35:20 UTC"
# # => [2007, 7, 5, 18, 35, 20, "UTC", 2]
#
# The order is of the form [year, month, day of month, hour, minute,
# second, timezone, day of week].
#
# ParseDate.parsedate can also take a second argument, +comp+, which
# is a boolean telling the method to compensate for dates with years
# expressed as two digits. Example:
#
# require 'parsedate'
#
# ParseDate.parsedate "Mon Dec 25 00 06:53:24 UTC", true
# # => [2000, 12, 25, 6, 53, 24, "UTC", 1]
#
