Is there an add_days in ruby datetime?

Question

In C#, There is a method AddDays([number of days]) in DateTime class.

Is there any kind of method like this in ruby?

Answer 1

I think next_day is more readable than + version.

require 'date'

DateTime.new(2016,5,17)
# => #
DateTime.new(2016,5,17).next_day(10)
# => #
Date.new(2016,5,17)
# => #
Date.new(2016,5,17).next_day(10)
# => #
