    """The function adds the duration time to the start time and returns the result.
    If the result will be the next day, it will show (next day) after the time.
    If the result will be more than one day later, it shows (n days later) after
    the time, where "n" is the number of days later.
    If the function is given the optional starting day of the week parameter,
    then the output displays the day of the week of the result.
    The day of the week in the output appears after the time and before
    the number of days later.
