class Numeric
  # Enables the use of time calculations and declarations, like 45.minutes + 2.hours + 4.years.
  #
  # These methods use Time#advance for precise date calculations when using from_now, ago, etc.
  # as well as adding or subtracting their results from a Time object. For example:
  #
  #   # equivalent to Time.current.advance(months: 1)
  #   1.month.from_now
  #
  #   # equivalent to Time.current.advance(years: 2)
  #   2.years.from_now
  #
  #   # equivalent to Time.current.advance(months: 4, years: 5)
  #   (4.months + 5.years).from_now
