NAME
       DateTime::LeapSecond - leap seconds table and utilities

VERSION
       version 1.59

SYNOPSIS
           use DateTime;
           use DateTime::LeapSecond;

           print "Leap seconds between years 1990 and 2000 are ";
           print DateTime::Leapsecond::leap_seconds($utc_rd_2000)
               - DateTime::Leapsecond::leap_seconds($utc_rd_1990);

DESCRIPTION
       This module is used to calculate leap seconds for a given Rata Die day.
       It is used when DateTime cannot compile the XS version of this code.

       This library is known to be accurate for dates until Jun 2020.

       There are no leap seconds before 1972, because that's the year this
       system was implemented.

       •   leap_seconds($rd)

           Returns the number of accumulated leap seconds for a given day.

       •   extra_seconds($rd)
