intervalsto

Intervalsto is a Python library designed for working with time intervals. It provides a robust and efficient way to represent, manipulate, and compare various types of time intervals. The library aims to simplify common tasks related to scheduling, event management, and time-based analysis by offering a clear and intuitive API.

The core concept in intervalsto is the Interval object, which typically represents a period of time with a defined start and end point. These intervals can be inclusive or exclusive of their endpoints, offering flexibility for different use cases. The library supports operations such as checking for overlaps between intervals, calculating the duration of an interval, merging overlapping intervals, and determining the difference between two intervals.

Intervalsto is particularly useful for scenarios where precise handling of time spans is crucial. For example, it can be employed in scheduling systems to prevent double-booking, in data analysis to segment time series data, or in project management to track task durations and dependencies. The library is known for its performance and its ability to handle a large number of intervals efficiently. It is actively maintained and is a popular choice among Python developers who need a reliable solution for interval arithmetic.
