If a range is supplied, the sequence terminates if the next result is not contained in the range. The starting point does not need to be contained in the range, but if the first result is outside of the range then the result will be an empty sequence.
func dates(byAdding component: Calendar.Component, value: Int = 1, startingAt start: Date, in range: Range<Date>? = nil, wrappingComponents: Bool = false) -> some Sendable & Sequence<Date>
Returns a sequence of Dates, calculated by adding a scaled amount of Calendar.Components to a starting Date. If a range is supplied, the sequence terminates if the next result is not contained in the range. The starting point does not need to be contained in the range, but if the first result is outside of the range then the result will be an empty sequence.

func ordinality(of smaller: Calendar.Component, in larger: Calendar.Component, for date: Date) -> Int? Returns, for a given absolute time, the ordinal number of a smaller calendar component (such as a day) within a specified larger calendar component (such as a week).
func range(of smaller: Calendar.Component, in larger: Calendar.Component, for date: Date) -> Range<Int>? Returns the range of absolute time values that a smaller calendar component (such as a day) can take on in a larger calendar component (such as a month) that includes a specified absolute time.
