If the start and end of a period are expressed as date instead of a complete date time, then it is implied that the start of the period is the beginning of the start day (i.e. 00:00:00) and the end of the period is the end of the end day (i.e. 23:59:59). 179 179 180 -=== 4.2.4 Gregorian Time Period === 187 +1. 188 +11. 189 +111.
