Get the difference in days between two dates Rails “Date”
Question
What is the proper way to subtract or add dates in Rails?
I tried the intuitive way but got Rational:
irb(main):089:0> Date.today.increase_by("3 days")
=> Sun, 19 May 2019
irb(main):090:0> Date.today
=> Thu, 16 May 2019
irb(main):091:0> Date.today.increase_by("3 days") - Date.today
=> (3/1)
Disclaimer: Please note that I am new to Ruby and Rails as well. 2 months of experience so far :)

You can use
Date.today # Thu, 16 May 2019
Date.today + 3 # Thu, 19 May 2019
Date.today - 3 # Thu, 13 May 2019
For Difference
Date.today + 3 # Thu, 19 May 2019
Date.today - 3 # Thu, 13 May 2019
(d1 - d2).to_i # 6 (Days)
