Fast Binary File Reading with C# Download source files - 26.7 Kb Introduction I’ve been working on a time-series analysis project where the data are stored as structures in massive binary files.

New in v2: performance improvement and support for accounting (4-4-5) calendar. Introduction When implementing some software for another project, I came across several requirements involving calculations with time periods.
These calculations were an important part of the solution and had high demands in respect to the correctness and accuracy of the results. The required functionality covered the following areas: Support for individual time periodsWorking with calendar periods within calendar yearsWorking with calendar periods deviating from the calendar year (fiscal or school periods)Working with the accounting and broadcast calendar The time calculations should be made available to both server components (Web Services and tasks) as well as for a rich client (WPF and Silverlight) and mobile devices. Analyzing the situation brought me to the conclusion that neither the components of the .NET Framework (which I didn't expect) nor any other available tools would cover all the requirements.
