+//! # DateSeries and BDateSeries Implementations
+//!
+//! This module provides two date-handling types using the [`chrono`](https://docs.rs/chrono) crate:
+//!
+//! - [`DateSeries`]: Stores any set of calendar dates and allows adding/subtracting *calendar days*.
+//! - [`BDateSeries`]: Stores only Monday–Friday business days and interprets add/sub as *business day* shifts,
+//!   skipping weekends (e.g., adding 1 to Friday goes to Monday).
+//!
+//! Both types also provide a [`from_iso8601_range`](#method.from_iso8601_range) constructor
+//! that builds a date series (or business‑date series) from a start/end string (YYYY‑MM‑DD).
