How Age works

Compute completed years, months, and days between a birth date and a reference date. The tool evaluates the supplied inputs together and returns the named outputs below; it does not infer omitted operating conditions or change the units shown.1

Years (years)
Completed years.
Months (months)
Whole months beyond the years.
Days (days)
Whole days beyond the months.

Limitations and assumptions

  • Calendar dates are not elapsed-time instants by themselves. Time zones, daylight-saving transitions, locale-specific week rules, inclusive endpoints, holidays, historical calendar reforms, and proleptic-calendar assumptions can change an apparently simple result.
  • Use finite inputs in the displayed units and preserve more precision than the final presentation requires. Independently verify safety-critical, financial, compliance, or production decisions.

Alternative or Complementary approaches

Store instants with an explicit time zone when time of day matters, and document whether interval endpoints are inclusive. Supply a jurisdiction-specific holiday calendar for business-day decisions.
