+# Task 2: Business Date
+# Submitted by: Mohammad S Anwar
+#
+# You are given $timestamp (date with time) and $duration in hours.
+#
+# Write a script to find the time that occurs $duration business hours after
+# $timestamp. For the sake of this task, let us assume the working hours is 9am
+# to 6pm, Monday to Friday. Please ignore timezone too.
+#
+# For example,
+#
+# Suppose the given timestamp is 2022-08-01 10:30 and the duration is 4 hours.
+# Then the next business date would be 2022-08-01 14:30.
+#
+# Similar if the given timestamp is 2022-08-01 17:00 and the duration is 3.5 hours.
+# Then the next business date would be 2022-08-02 11:30.
