# =============== SPANS: Start/End of periods ===============
# Year 2025 span
>>> span_year = api.bdays.span(2025)
>>> print(span_year)
CalSpan(start_date=datetime.date(2024, 12, 31), end_date=datetime.date(2025, 12, 31), year=2025, semester=None, quarter=None, month=None, country_code='MA')

# 1st Semester of year 2025
>>> span_s1 = api.bdays.span(2025, semester=1)
>>> print(span_s1)
CalSpan(start_date=datetime.date(2024, 12, 31), end_date=datetime.date(2025, 6, 30), year=2025, semester=1, quarter=None, month=None, country_code='MA')

# 3rd Quarter of year 2025
