How it Works

The Age Calculator uses calendar arithmetic rather than fixed 30-day months. It correctly accounts for varying month lengths and leap years to produce an exact age in years, months, and days. It also calculates totals in months, weeks, and days, and determines how many days remain until your next birthday.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is age calculated for someone born on February 29?

In non-leap years, the birthday is treated as February 28 for the purposes of the "next birthday" calculation. The age in years, months, and days is always computed using correct calendar arithmetic.

Does this calculator account for leap years?

Yes. The calculator uses actual calendar dates and correctly handles leap years when computing age and the number of days between dates.
