 /**

  * The class <code>Date</code> represents a specific instant

  * in time, with millisecond precision.

  * <p>

  * Prior to JDK&nbsp;1.1, the class <code>Date</code> had two additional

  * functions.  It allowed the interpretation of dates as year, month, day, hour,

  * minute, and second values.  It also allowed the formatting and parsing

  * of date strings.  Unfortunately, the API for these functions was not

  * amenable to internationalization.  As of JDK 1.1, the

  * <code>Calendar</code> class should be used to convert between dates and time

  * fields and the <code>DateFormat</code> class should be used to format and

  * parse date strings.

  * The corresponding methods in <code>Date</code> are deprecated.

  * <p>

  * Although the <code>Date</code> class is intended to reflect

  * coordinated universal time (UTC), it may not do so exactly,

  * depending on the host environment of the Java Virtual Machine.

  * Nearly all modern operating systems assume that 1 day =

  * 24 × 60 × 60 = 86400 seconds

  * in all cases. In UTC, however, about once every year or two there

  * is an extra second, called a "leap second." The leap

  * second is always added as the last second of the day, and always

  * on December 31 or June 30. For example, the last minute of the

  * year 1995 was 61 seconds long, thanks to an added leap second.

  * Most computer clocks are not accurate enough to be able to reflect

  * the leap-second distinction.

  * <p>

  * Some computer standards are defined in terms of Greenwich mean

  * time (GMT), which is equivalent to universal time (UT).  GMT is

  * the "civil" name for the standard; UT is the

  * "scientific" name for the same standard. The

  * distinction between UTC and UT is that UTC is based on an atomic

  * clock and UT is based on astronomical observations, which for all

  * practical purposes is an invisibly fine hair to split. Because the

  * earth's rotation is not uniform (it slows down and speeds up

  * in complicated ways), UT does not always flow uniformly. Leap

  * seconds are introduced as needed into UTC so as to keep UTC within

  * 0.9 seconds of UT1, which is a version of UT with certain

  * corrections applied. There are other time and date systems as

  * well; for example, the time scale used by the satellite-based

  * global positioning system (GPS) is synchronized to UTC but is

  * <i>not</i> adjusted for leap seconds. An interesting source of

  * further information is the U.S. Naval Observatory, particularly

  * the Directorate of Time at:

  * <blockquote><pre>

  *     <a href=http://tycho.usno.navy.mil>http://tycho.usno.navy.mil</a>

  * </pre></blockquote>

  * <p>

  * and their definitions of "Systems of Time" at:

  * <blockquote><pre>

  *     <a href=http://tycho.usno.navy.mil/systime.html>http://tycho.usno.navy.mil/systime.html</a>

  * </pre></blockquote>

  * <p>

  * In all methods of class <code>Date</code> that accept or return

  * year, month, date, hours, minutes, and seconds values, the

  * following representations are used:

  * <ul>

  * <li>A year <i>y</i> is represented by the integer

  *     <i>y</i>&nbsp;<code>-&nbsp;1900</code>.

  * <li>A month is represented by an integer from 0 to 11; 0 is January,

  *     1 is February, and so forth; thus 11 is December.

  * <li>A date (day of month) is represented by an integer from 1 to 31

  *     in the usual manner.

  * <li>An hour is represented by an integer from 0 to 23. Thus, the hour

  *     from midnight to 1 a.m. is hour 0, and the hour from noon to 1

  *     p.m. is hour 12.

  * <li>A minute is represented by an integer from 0 to 59 in the usual manner.

  * <li>A second is represented by an integer from 0 to 61; the values 60 and

  *     61 occur only for leap seconds and even then only in Java

  *     implementations that actually track leap seconds correctly. Because

  *     of the manner in which leap seconds are currently introduced, it is

  *     extremely unlikely that two leap seconds will occur in the same

  *     minute, but this specification follows the date and time conventions

  *     for ISO C.

  * </ul>

  * <p>

  * In all cases, arguments given to methods for these purposes need

  * not fall within the indicated ranges; for example, a date may be

  * specified as January 32 and is interpreted as meaning February 1.

      * meridian). If no time zone is specified, the local time zone is

      * data of interest. Any material in <tt>s</tt> that is within the

      * ASCII parenthesis characters <tt>(</tt> and <tt>)</tt> is ignored.

      * Parentheses may be nested. Otherwise, the only characters permitted

      * within <tt>s</tt> are these ASCII characters:

      * <blockquote><pre>

      * abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz

      * ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ

      * 0123456789,+-:/</pre></blockquote>

      * and whitespace characters.<p>

      * A consecutive sequence of decimal digits is treated as a decimal

      * number:<ul>

      * <li>If a number is preceded by <tt>+</tt> or <tt>-</tt> and a year

      *     has already been recognized, then the number is a time-zone

      *     offset. If the number is less than 24, it is an offset measured

      *     in hours. Otherwise, it is regarded as an offset in minutes,

      *     expressed in 24-hour time format without punctuation. A

      *     preceding <tt>-</tt> means a westward offset. Time zone offsets

      *     are always relative to UTC (Greenwich). Thus, for example,

      *     <tt>-5</tt> occurring in the string would mean "five hours west

      *     of Greenwich" and <tt>+0430</tt> would mean "four hours and

      *     thirty minutes east of Greenwich." It is permitted for the

      *     string to specify <tt>GMT</tt>, <tt>UT</tt>, or <tt>UTC</tt>

      *     redundantly-for example, <tt>GMT-5</tt> or <tt>utc+0430</tt>.

      * <li>The number is regarded as a year number if one of the

      *     following conditions is true:

      * <ul>

      *     <li>The number is equal to or greater than 70 and followed by a

      *         space, comma, slash, or end of string

      *     <li>The number is less than 70, and both a month and a day of

      *         the month have already been recognized</li>

      * </ul>

      *     If the recognized year number is less than 100, it is

      *     interpreted as an abbreviated year relative to a century of

      *     which dates are within 80 years before and 19 years after

      *     the time when the Date class is initialized.

      *     After adjusting the year number, 1900 is subtracted from

      *     it. For example, if the current year is 1999 then years in

      *     the range 19 to 99 are assumed to mean 1919 to 1999, while

      *     years from 0 to 18 are assumed to mean 2000 to 2018.  Note

      *     that this is slightly different from the interpretation of

      *     years less than 100 that is used in {@link java.text.SimpleDateFormat}.

      * <li>If the number is followed by a colon, it is regarded as an hour,

      *     unless an hour has already been recognized, in which case it is

      *     regarded as a minute.

      * <li>If the number is followed by a slash, it is regarded as a month

      *     (it is decreased by 1 to produce a number in the range <tt>0</tt>

      *     to <tt>11</tt>), unless a month has already been recognized, in

      *     which case it is regarded as a day of the month.

      * <li>If the number is followed by whitespace, a comma, a hyphen, or

      *     end of string, then if an hour has been recognized but not a

      *     minute, it is regarded as a minute; otherwise, if a minute has

      *     been recognized but not a second, it is regarded as a second;

      *     otherwise, it is regarded as a day of the month. </ul><p>

      * A consecutive sequence of letters is regarded as a word and treated

      * as follows:<ul>

      * <li>A word that matches <tt>AM</tt>, ignoring case, is ignored (but

      *     the parse fails if an hour has not been recognized or is less

      *     than <tt>1</tt> or greater than <tt>12</tt>).

      * <li>A word that matches <tt>PM</tt>, ignoring case, adds <tt>12</tt>

      *     to the hour (but the parse fails if an hour has not been

      *     recognized or is less than <tt>1</tt> or greater than <tt>12</tt>).

      * <li>Any word that matches any prefix of <tt>SUNDAY, MONDAY, TUESDAY,

      *     WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY, FRIDAY</tt>, or <tt>SATURDAY</tt>, ignoring

      *     case, is ignored. For example, <tt>sat, Friday, TUE</tt>, and

      *     specifying a month and is converted to a number (<tt>0</tt> to

      *     <tt>11</tt>). For example, <tt>aug, Sept, april</tt>, and
