    schedule.Add(time: CronTimeSections.Seconds, value: seconds, repeatEvery: true)
    schedule.Add(CronTimeSections.Minutes, 4)
    schedule.Add(CronTimeSections.Hours, 3, 5)

Add a Month Restriction to the Cron Expression

    schedule.Add(CronMonths.March)

Add a Day of the Week Restriction to the Cron Expression

    schedule = new CronBuilder();
    schedule
        .Add(CronDays.Friday)
        .Add(CronTimeSections.DayMonth, dayMonth)
        .Seconds.Add(5);

Display Cron Description

    var descCron = cron.Description;
    var descSeconds = cron.Seconds.Description;

Remove all or parts of a Cron Expression

    cron.Remove(CronTimeSections.Seconds, 5);                

Remove only one entry Range of Seconds
