When you need to write logic for each specific date in a date range. One way to iterate through the days is using something like this method.

private IEnumerable<DateTime> EachDay(DateTime from, DateTime thru)
{
     for (var day = from.Date; day.Date <= thru.Date; day = day.AddDays(1))
     {
          yield return day;
     }
}

This method could then be called like:

foreach (DateTime day in EachDay(StartDate, EndDate))

If  you have not used yield before there are many great articles out there already that can explain in more detail, however it basically is returning each value per cycle before going back to the loop. So this would talk to this method, return a single day before returning to the next day.

Resharper is a must have tool for any .net developer.

Resharper helps by speeding up development time, helps keep naming conventions the same (amongst many other benefits), provides useful insights while coding, and so much more. I honestly would hate to code without Resharper, if you have never tried it give it a swirl (free for 30 days).

You can find it from the Jet Brains website.
