+wplib.datetime0_idt module
+
+Simple date/time stamp using 64-bit integer.
+The primary motivation of creating this class is to store date/time
+information in the most compact way, while keeping the ease of
+human readability.
+
+The internal format is very simple:
+
+YYYYMMDDhhmmssfff
+
+where:
+ - YYYY = year (0 < YYYY <= 9999)
+ - MM   = month (1 <= MM <= 12)
+ - DD   = day
+ - hh   = hour (0 <= hh < 24)
+ - mm   = minutes
+ - ss   = seconds
+ - fff  = milliseconds
+
+The time is always expressed in terms of UTC to eliminate ambiguity of
+time zone, daylight savings time, etc.
+CAVEAT: The resolution of the time is only on the order of millisecond.
+
+This is a 17-decimal-digit integer, which fits in a 64-bit range (9.22e+18).
