How to double the number of Days to given Date?

Question

Problem

Given a Date.Add specified number of days to endDate.

Below is the doubleDate function that I need to define.

public static Date doubleDate(Date endDate,int noOFDays){
}

Solution:

public static Date doubleDate(Date endDate,int noOFDays){
    Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();    
    c.setTime(endDate);
    c.add(Calendar.DATE,noOFDays);
    return c.getTime();     
}

Can anyone guide me which method should I use to double the given endDate?
