c# - How to add weeks to a DateTime object

DateTime add weeks
The following asp.net c# example code demonstrate us how can we add one or more weeks with a DateTimeobject programmatically at run time in an asp.net application. By default, .net framework's DateTime Class have nomethod or property to add week with a DateTime object. So we need to go technically to add weeks with a date.

We know that one week is equal to 7 days, two weeks is equal to 14 days, three weeks is equal to 21 daysand so on. .Net framework's DateTime Class DateTime.AddDays() method allow us to add specified days with a DateTimeobject. This method require to pass a parameter which hold number of days to add. So, we can use this AddDays()method to add weeks with a DateTime object.

As example, if we want to add one week with a date then we can call the method as DateTime.AddDays(7) and if we want toadd three weeks with a DateTime object then we can call the method as DateTime.AddDays(21) and so on. We just need to pass theappropriate number of days as method parameter which represent the number of weeks.

Restricting Jetpack Compose TextField to Numeric Input Only

Jetpack Compose has revolutionized Android development with its declarative approach, enabling developers to build modern, responsive UIs more efficiently. Among the many components provided by Compose, TextField is a critical building block for user input. However, ensuring that a TextField accepts only numeric input can pose challenges, especially when considering edge cases like empty fields, invalid characters, or localization nuances. In this blog post, we'll explore how to restrict a Jetpack Compose TextField to numeric input only, discussing both basic and advanced implementations. Why Restricting Input Matters Restricting user input to numeric values is a common requirement in apps dealing with forms, payment entries, age verifications, or any data where only numbers are valid. Properly validating input at the UI level enhances user experience, reduces backend validation overhead, and minimizes errors during data processing. Compose provides the flexibility to implement ...

jetpack compose - TextField remove underline

Compose TextField Remove Underline The TextField is the text input widget of android jetpack compose library. TextField is an equivalent widget of the android view system’s EditText widget. TextField is used to enter and modify text.

jetpack compose - Image clickable

Compose Image Clickable The Image widget allows android developers to display an image object to the app user interface using the jetpack compose library. Android app developers can show image objects to the Image widget from various sources such as painter resources, vector resources, bitmap, etc. Image is a very essential component of the jetpack compose library. Android app developers can change many properties of an Image widget by its modifiers such as size, shape, etc. We also can specify the Image object scaling algorithm, content description, etc. But how can we set a click event to an Image widget in a jetpack compose application? There is no built-in property/parameter/argument to set up an onClick event directly to the Image widget. This android application development tutorial will demonstrate to us how we can add a click event to the Image widget and make it clickable. Click event of a widget allow app users to execute a task such as showing a toast message by cli...
