You can use the package in two ways:

Interactively
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

.. code:: bash

$ python -m getids 1234567 200097591 2000000000

Expected output:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.. code:: text

1234567: older_than 10/2013
200097591: aprox 5/2016
2000000000: newer_than 10/2021

From python code
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

.. code:: python

>>> from getids import get_date_as_string, get_date_as_datetime
>>>
>>> get_date_as_string(1234567)
('older_than', '10/2013')
>>> get_date_as_string(200097591)
('aprox', '5/2016')
>>> get_date_as_string(2000000000)
('newer_than', '10/2021')
>>>
>>> get_date_as_datetime(1234567)
(-1, datetime.datetime(2013, 10, 31, 22, 0))
>>> get_date_as_datetime(200097591)
(0, datetime.datetime(2016, 5, 6, 17, 25, 6))
>>> get_date_as_datetime(2000000000)
(1, datetime.datetime(2021, 10, 11, 21, 53, 20))

Note: The ``get_date_as_datetime`` function is seen as a low-level
function, since it returns a specific date, which is not wanted in
most cases, since the date is not accurate.
