solve the following problem... Problem Session Working in pairs of two, solve the following problem...

Problem Design a Date class to represent calender dates (e.g., May 1, 2000). Identify the function members needed to operate on Date objects; the data members needed to represent dates. Implement as much of your design as time permits. You may restrict dates to those since 1 AD.
