Example #1 DatePeriod example

`<?php
$start = new DateTime('2012-07-01');
$interval = new DateInterval('P7D');
$end = new DateTime('2012-07-31');
$recurrences = 4;
$iso = 'R4/2012-07-01T00:00:00Z/P7D';
// All of these periods are equivalent.
$period = new DatePeriod($start, $interval, $recurrences);
$period = new DatePeriod($start, $interval, $end);
$period = new DatePeriod($iso);
// By iterating over the DatePeriod object, all of the
// recurring dates within that period are printed.
foreach ($period as $date) {
echo $date->format('Y-m-d')."\n";
}
?>`

Example #2 DatePeriod example with `DatePeriod::EXCLUDE_START_DATE`

`<?php
$start = new DateTime('2012-07-01');
$interval = new DateInterval('P7D');
$end = new DateTime('2012-07-31');
$period = new DatePeriod($start, $interval, $end,
DatePeriod::EXCLUDE_START_DATE);
// By iterating over the DatePeriod object, all of the
// recurring dates within that period are printed.
// Note that, in this case, 2012-07-01 is not printed.
foreach ($period as $date) {
echo $date->format('Y-m-d')."\n";
}
?>`

### Note

Unbound numbers of repetitions as specified by ISO 8601 section 4.5 "Recurring time interval" are not supported, i.e. neither passing "R/..." as `isostr` nor passing `NULL` as `end` would work.
