Your task is to convert delivery date descriptions to actual delivery dates, based on when the meeting started.
There are two types of delivery date descriptions:
- Fixed: a predefined set of words.
- Variable: words that have a variable component, but follow a predefined set of patterns.
Fixed delivery date descriptions
There are three fixed delivery date descriptions:
"NOW""ASAP"(As Soon As Possible)"EOW"(End Of Week)
The following table shows how to translate them:
| Description | Meeting start | Delivery date |
|---|---|---|
"NOW" | - | Two hours after the meeting started |
"ASAP" | Before 13:00 | Today at 17:00 |
"ASAP" | After or at 13:00 | Tomorrow at 13:00 |
"EOW" | Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday | Friday at 17:00 |
"EOW" | Thursday or Friday | Sunday at 20:00 |
Variable delivery date descriptions
There are two variable delivery date description patterns:
"<N>M"(N-th month)"Q<N>"(N-th quarter)
| Description | Meeting start | Delivery date |
|---|---|---|
"<N>M" | Before N-th month | At 8:00 on the first workday of this year's N-th month |
"<N>M" | After or in N-th month | At 8:00 on the first workday of next year's N-th month |
"Q<N>" | Before or in N-th quarter | At 8:00 on the last workday of this year's N-th quarter |
"Q<N>" | After N-th quarter | At 8:00 on the last workday of next year's N-th quarter |
