Assuming that the “value double of a date” is like the number of days
since some date in the past, you could do:

require ‘date’
=> true

Date.today.jd - 38904
=> 2415019

class Date
def cdbl(start=2415019)
self.jd - start
end
end
=> nil

Date.today.cdbl
=> 38904

Then tomorrow will be:

Date.today.succ.cdbl
=> 38905

I suppose that’s what you’re asking, but perhaps you need to step
back and think about what you are really trying to accomplish. (And
if a direct translation from visualbasic is the right thing to do.)
