YZ_Summer_Time - MetaTrader 5 için kütüphane

Checking a date for belonging to winter or summer time. The function determines time (summer or winter).

Shift to winter time is made at night of the last October Sunday, and shift to summer time is made at night of the last Sunday of March.

There is not more reliable way of figuring summer and winter time.

The code was developed for news debugging.
