how to check if time is within a specific range in swift

Question

Hi I am trying to check if the current time is within a time range, say 8:00 - 16:30. My code below shows that I can obtain the current time as a string, but I am unsure how

Answer 1

extension Date { 
    /// time returns a double for which the integer represents the hours from 1 to 24 and the decimal value represents the minutes.  
    var time: Double {
        Double(Calendar.current.component(.hour, from: self)) + Double(Calendar.current.component(.minute, from: self)) / 100
    }
}

// usage 
print(9.30...16.30 ~= Date().time ? "If you're on the East Coast, It is during market hours" : "its after hours")
