Hi all, I have a list of child items that i want to iterate through and group by date. However I'm not sure how to compare the dates of the current and next item in the list to do so. Here's what I have so far:

@inherits Umbraco.Web.Macros.PartialViewMacroPage
@{
var pubsNode = Umbraco.TypedContentAtRoot().First().Children("publicationRecordListing").First();
  }

<h2 class="beta push__bottom">Publications</h2>
@{
    if (pubsNode != null)
    {
        foreach (var item in pubsNode.Children.OrderByDescending(n => n.GetPropertyValue<DateTime>("publicationDate")).Take(3))
        {
            if (!item.GetPropertyValue<bool>("hideFromListings"))
            {
            <a href=">
                <section class="category-item">
                    <h1 class="category-item__title">@item.Name</h1>
                    <div class="category-item__summary">@(item.GetPropertyValue<DateTime>("publicationDate").ToString("dd MMMM yyyy"))</div>

                </section>
            </a>
            }
        }
    }
}
