Weeks (ThreeTen-Extra 1.0 API)

java.lang.Object
- org.threeten.extra.Weeks

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<Weeks>, TemporalAmount
```
public final class Weeks
extends Object
implements TemporalAmount, Comparable<Weeks>, Serializable
```
A week-based amount of time, such as '12 weeks'.
This class models a quantity or amount of time in terms of weeks. It is a type-safe way of representing a number of weeks in an application.
The model is of a directed amount, meaning that the amount may be negative.
Implementation Requirements:
This class is immutable and thread-safe.
This class must be treated as a value type. Do not synchronize, rely on the identity hash code or use the distinction between equals() and ==.

```
public static final Weeks ZERO
```
    A constant for zero weeks.
  - ONE
```
public static final Weeks ONE
```
    A constant for one week.
- Method Detail
  - of
```
public static Weeks of(int weeks)
```
    Obtains a Weeks representing a number of weeks.
    The resulting amount will have the specified weeks.
    
    Parameters:
    
    weeks - the number of weeks, positive or negative
    
    Returns:
    
    the number of weeks, not null
  - from
```
public static Weeks from(TemporalAmount amount)
```
    Obtains an instance of Weeks from a temporal amount.
    This obtains an instance based on the specified amount. A TemporalAmount represents an amount of time, which may be date-based or time-based, which this factory extracts to a Weeks.
    The result is calculated by looping around each unit in the specified amount. Each amount is converted to weeks using Temporals.convertAmount(long, java.time.temporal.TemporalUnit, java.time.temporal.TemporalUnit). If the conversion yields a remainder, an exception is thrown. If the amount is zero, the unit is ignored. For example, "7 days" can be converted to weeks but "6 days" cannot.
    
    Parameters:
    
    amount - the temporal amount to convert, not null
    
    Returns:
    
    the equivalent amount, not null
    
    Throws:
    
    DateTimeException - if unable to convert to a Weeks
    
    ArithmeticException - if numeric overflow occurs
  - parse
```
public static Weeks parse(CharSequence text)
```
    Obtains a Weeks from a text string such as PnW.
    This will parse the string produced by toString() which is based on the ISO-8601 period formats PnW.
    The string starts with an optional sign, denoted by the ASCII negative or positive symbol. If negative, the whole amount is negated. The ASCII letter "P" is next in upper or lower case. The ASCII integer amount is next, which may be negative. The ASCII letter "W" is next in upper or lower case.
    The leading plus/minus sign, and negative values for weeks are not part of the ISO-8601 standard.
    For example, the following are valid inputs:
```
   "P2W"             -- Weeks.of(2)
   "P-2W"            -- Weeks.of(-2)
   "-P2W"            -- Weeks.of(-2)
   "-P-2W"           -- Weeks.of(2)
 
```
    Parameters:
    
    text - the text to parse, not null
    
    Returns:
    
    the parsed period, not null
    
    Throws:
    
    DateTimeParseException - if the text cannot be parsed to a period
  - between
```
public static Weeks between(Temporal startDateInclusive,
                            Temporal endDateExclusive)
```
    Obtains a Weeks consisting of the number of weeks between two dates.
    The start date is included, but the end date is not. The result of this method can be negative if the end is before the start.
    
    Parameters:
    
    startDateInclusive - the start date, inclusive, not null
    
    endDateExclusive - the end date, exclusive, not null
    
    Returns:
    
    the number of weeks between this date and the end date, not null
