constexpr std::chrono::year_month_weekday

operator+ ( const std::chrono::year_month_weekday & ymwd,

const std::chrono::months & dm ) noexcept ;
(1) (since C++20)
constexpr std::chrono::year_month_weekday

operator+ ( const std::chrono::months & dm,

const std::chrono::year_month_weekday & ymwd ) noexcept ;
(2) (since C++20)
constexpr std::chrono::year_month_weekday

operator+ ( const std::chrono::year_month_weekday & ymwd,

const std::chrono::years & dy ) noexcept ;
(3) (since C++20)
constexpr std::chrono::year_month_weekday

operator+ ( const std::chrono::years & dy,

const std::chrono::year_month_weekday & ymwd ) noexcept ;
(4) (since C++20)
constexpr std::chrono::year_month_weekday

operator- ( const std::chrono::year_month_weekday & ymwd,

const std::chrono::months & dm ) noexcept ;
(5) (since C++20)
constexpr std::chrono::year_month_weekday

operator- ( const std::chrono::year_month_weekday & ymwd,

const std::chrono::years & dy ) noexcept ;
(6) (since C++20)
1,2) Adds dm.count() months to the date represented by ymwd. The result has the same year() and month() as std::chrono::year_month (ymwd.year ( ), ymwd.month ( ) ) + and the same weekday() and index() as ymwd
3,4) Adds dy.count() years to the date represented by ymwd. The result is equivalent to std::chrono::year_month_weekday (ymwd.year ( ) + dy, ymwd.month ( ), ymwd.weekday_indexed ( ) )
5) Subtracts dm.count() months from the date represented by ymwd. Equivalent to ymwd + -dm
6) Subtracts dy.count() years from the date represented by ymwd. Equivalent to ymwd + -dy

For durations that are convertible to both std::chrono::years and std::chrono::months, the years overloads (3,4,6)

Notes

Even if ymwd.ok() is true, the resulting year_month_weekday may not represent a valid date if ymwd.index() is 5

Example

#include <cassert>
#include <chrono>
#include <iostream>
 
int main()
{
    auto ymwdi{1/std::chrono::Wednesday[1]/2021};
    std::cout << ymwdi << '\n';
 
    ymwdi = std::chrono::years(5) + ymwdi;
    // First Wednesday in January, 2026
    std::cout << ymwdi << '\n';
    assert(static_cast<std::chrono::year_month_day>(ymwdi) ==
           std::chrono::January/7/2026);
 
    ymwdi = ymwdi - std::chrono::months(6);
    // First Wednesday in July, 2025
    std::cout << ymwdi << '\n';
    assert(static_cast<std::chrono::year_month_day>(ymwdi) ==
           std::chrono::July/2/2025);
}

Output:

2021/Jan/Wed[1]
2026/Jan/Wed[1]
2025/Jul/Wed[1]
