* 100% Coverage for Calculation/DateTime
The code in DateTime is now completely covered.
Along the way, some errors were discovered and corrected.
- The tests which have had to be changed at the start of every year are
replaced by more robust equivalents which do not require annual changes.
- Several places in the code where Gnumeric and OpenOffice were thought to differ
from Excel do not appear to have had any justification.
I have left a comment where such code has been removed.
- Use DateTime when possible rather than date, time, or strftime functions to avoid
potential Y2038 problems.
- Some impossible code has been removed, replaced by an explanatory comment.
- NETWORKDAYS had a bug when the start date was Sunday. There had been no tests
of this condition.
- Some functions allow boolean and null arguments where a number is expected.
This is more complicated than the equivalent situations in MathTrig because
the initial date for these calculations can be Day 1 rather than Day 0.
- More testing for dates from 1900-01-01 through the fictitious
everywhere-but-Excel 1900-01-29.
- This showed that there is an additional Excel bug - Excel evaluates
WEEKNUM(emptycell) as 0, which is not a valid result for
WEEKNUM without a second argument.
PhpSpreadsheet now duplicates this bug.
- There is a similar and even worse bug for 1904-01-01 in 1904 calculations.
Weeknum returns 0 for this,
but returns the correct value for arguments of 0 or null.
- DATEVALUE should accept 1900-02-29 (sigh) and relatives.
PhpSpreadsheet now duplicates this bug.
- Testing bootstrap sets default timezone. This appears to be a relic from
the releases of PHP where the unwise decision, subsequenly reversed,
was made to issue messages for
"no default timezone is set" rather than just use a sensible default.
This was a disruptive setting for some of the tests I added.
There is only one test in the entire suite which is default-timezone-dependent.
Setting and resetting of default timezone is moved to that test
(Reader/ODS/ODSTest), and out of bootstrap.
- There had been no testing of NOW() function.
- DATEVALUE test had no tests for 1904 calendar and needs some.
- DATE test changed 1900/1904 calendar in use without restoring it.
- WEEKDAY test had no tests for 1904 calendar and needs some.
- Which revealed a bug in Shared/Date (excelToDateTimeObject was not
recognizing 1904-01-01 as valid when 1904 calendar is in use).
- And an additional bug in that legal 1904-calendar values in the 0.0-1.0
range yielded the same "wrong" answers as 1900-calendar (see "One note" below).
Also the comment for one of the calendar-1904 tests was wrong in attempting
to identify what time of day the fraction represented.
I had wanted to break this up into a set of smaller modules, a process already
started for Engineering and MathTrig.
However the number of source code changes was sufficient that I wanted
a clean delta for this request.
If it is merged, I will work on breaking it up afterwards.
One note - Shared/Date/excelToDateTimeObject, when calendar-1900 is in use,
returns an unexpected result if its argument is between 0 and 1,
which is nominally invalid for that calendar.
It uses a base-1970 calendar in that instance. That check is not justifiable
for calendar-1904, where values in that range are legal,
so I made the check specific to calendar-1900,
and adjusted 3 1904 unit test results accordingly. However, I have to admit that
I don't understand why that check should be made even for calendar-1900.
It certainly doesn't match anything that Excel does.
I would recommend scrapping that code altogether.
If agreed, I would do this as part of the break-up into smaller modules.
Another note -
more controversially, it is clear that PhpSpreadsheet needs to support
the Excel and PHP date formats. Although it requires further study,
I am not convinced that it needs to support Unix timestamp format.
Since that is a potential source of Y2038 problems on 32-bit systems,
I would like to open a PR to deprecate the use of that format.
Please let me know if you are aware of a valid reason to continue to support it.

PhpSpreadsheet
PhpSpreadsheet is a library written in pure PHP and offers a set of classes that allow you to read and write various spreadsheet file formats such as Excel and LibreOffice Calc.
Documentation
Read more about it, including install instructions, in the official documentation. Or check out the API documentation.

PHPExcel vs PhpSpreadsheet ?
PhpSpreadsheet is the next version of PHPExcel. It breaks compatibility to dramatically improve the code base quality (namespaces, PSR compliance, use of latest PHP language features, etc.).
Because all efforts have shifted to PhpSpreadsheet, PHPExcel will no longer be maintained. All contributions for PHPExcel, patches and new features, should target PhpSpreadsheet master branch.
Do you need to migrate? There is an automated tool for that.
