Issue #10040 has been updated by Yukihiro Matsumoto.
Status changed from Open to Feedback
I don't really understand the benefit of having Time literals.
I don't see `20140718T` more readable than `Time.new(2014,7,18)`.

Feature #10040: `%d` and `%t` shorthands for `Date.new(*args)` and `Time.new(*args)`

----------------------------------------
I'm working on a Ruby application where we have to deal with a lot of dates and times, especially in our test suite. We currently have a couple thousand cases of `Date.new(...)`, and I'm finding the syntax to be a little unwieldy.
What do you think about the following shorthand suggestions?
```ruby
%d(2014, 7, 15) # Equivalent to: Date.new(2014, 7, 15)
%t(2014, 7, 15, 12, 58, 45) # Equivalent to: Time.new(2014, 7, 15, 12, 58, 45)
```
I added commas because I think the syntax should also support variables:
```ruby
year = 2014
month = 7
%d(year, month, 15) # Equivalent to: Date.new(year, month, 15)
```
I understand that this will operate a bit differently to `%w` and `%i`, but I think that supporting variable evaluation would be a lot more useful.
An alternative proposal would be to add `[]` methods to `Date` and `Time`, so that we could call:
```ruby
Date[2014, 7, 15]
Time[2014, 7, 15, 12, 58, 43]
```
This would be still be a little shorter and nicer to use. Please let me know if you would like me to open a feature ticket for `Date.[]` and `Time.[]` methods, instead.
Please let me know your thoughts. Would you find a shorter date/time syntax useful?
