Rails core - Apr 2013 - [ActiveSupport] Add a "remaining_to" method to date class

Just that:

class Date
>   def remaining_to(date)
>     if date.acts_like? :date
>       date - self
>     end
>   end
>
  alias :days_to

end


and then be able to do this:

Date.today.remaining_to(Date.parse ''2014-04-02'').days.seconds

Thank you for the suggestion, but I think we don''t need to add this to
Active Support since the implementation is really easy and I don''t see
Rails or a lot of applications taking advantage of it.

It''s ok... Actually I did not think about the implementation.
It''s pretty
simple. Well was a newbie suggestion... sorry about that.

Thanks for your reply!
