toolkit for Elixir.

levels 0, 1, and 2 as specified by ISO 8601-2
## Installation
Add `edtf` to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`:
```elixir
def deps do
[

]
end
```
## Usage

- Some human-readable dates containing Level 2 qualifications and years with significant digits,
may produce less specific results than desired.
