<para>
The class boost::posix_time::time_period provides direct representation for ranges between two times. Periods provide the ability to simplify some types of calculations by simplifying the conditional logic of the program.
</para>
<para>
A period that is created with beginning and end points being equal, or with a duration of zero, is known as a zero length period. Zero length periods are considered invalid (it is perfectly legal to construct an invalid period). For these periods, the <code>last</code> point will always be one unit less that the <code>begin</code> point.
</para>
<para>
The <link linkend="date_time.examples.time_periods">time periods example</link> provides an example of using time periods.
