c# – Algorithm to check whether a certain hour falls into a given time period – Stack Overflow

Posted by jpluimers on 2021/07/15

For my link archive: [WayBack] c# – Algorithm to check whether a certain hour falls into a given time period – Stack Overflow answered by [WayBack] kennytm:

Assume you only have the time and not the date.

if end_time >= start_time:
    return start_time <= current_time <= end_time
else:
    return start_time <= current_time or current_time <= end_time

I totally agree with this comment:

This is brilliant! Thanks a lot. – Martin Dimitrov [WayBack]

I love it when algorithms are simple and elegant.

It reminded me of another scheduling related algorithm: [WayBack] Activity Selection Problem | Greedy Algo-1 – GeeksforGeeks
