echo $period->getRecurrences(), "\n";
$period = new DatePeriod($start, $interval, $recurrences);
echo $period->getRecurrences(), "\n";
$period = new DatePeriod($start, $interval, $recurrences, DatePeriod::INCLUDE_END_DATE);
echo $period->getRecurrences(), "\n\n";
// recurrences not set in the constructor
$period = new DatePeriod($start, $interval, $end);
var_dump($period->getRecurrences());
$period = new DatePeriod($start, $interval, $end, DatePeriod::EXCLUDE_START_DATE);
