Future perfect


               Form

               The future perfect is composed of two elements
               the simple future of the verb "to have" (will have) + the past participle of the main verb




               Function


               The future perfect tense refers to a completed action in the future. When we use this tense we
               are projecting ourselves forward into the future and looking back at an action that will be
               completed some time later than now. It is most often used with a time expression.


               Examples

                I will have been here for six months on June 23rd.
                By the time you read this I will have left.
                You will have finished your report by this time next week.
                Won't they have arrived by 5:00?
                Will you have eaten when I pick you up?
