I have to admit the documentation for perl6 is absolutely excellent as the very first English prose line on the very first google result answers your very reasonable first question about a date class.

https://docs.perl6.org/type/Date

"A Date is an immutable object identifying a day in the Gregorian calendar."

I like a language that's not surprising, with easy to find answers. My experience with Perl over the decades is everything about it meets expectations to a spooky extent, which is also nice. The surprise factor for Perl is very low.

It seems to define excellence in programming language documentation. Is there anything better out there?
