| Description |
Adds a number of Ticks to the current object datetime, returning the result. A tick is 0.0000001 seconds (100 nanoseconds).
You can subtract by specifying a negative number, or using the Subtract method.

|
| Notes |
Like a lot of datetime methods, the datetime object itself is not affected - the modified datetime is returned for assignment.

program Project1;
{$APPTYPE CONSOLE}
var
time : DateTime;
begin
time := Datetime.Create(2004, 6, 20, 08, 30, 0); // 08:30 on June 20 2004
Console.WriteLine('Time at the start = {0:F}', time);
time := time.AddTicks(750000000); // 1 minute 15 seconds
Console.WriteLine('With 750000000 ticks added = {0:F}', time);
Console.ReadLine;
end.

Time at the start = 20 June 2004 08:30:00
With 750000000 ticks added = 20 June 2004 08:31:15
