Understanding Age Calculations
Age calculations can vary based on different calendar systems and leap year considerations. Here are some key points to remember:
- Leap Years: Years divisible by 4 are leap years, except for century years which must be divisible by 400
- Month Lengths: Months have 28-31 days (April, June, September, November have 30; February has 28 or 29)
- Date Formats: Our calculator uses ISO 8601 format (YYYY-MM-DD)
- Exact Age: The calculator considers the exact date of birth and the target date to calculate precise age
Age Calculation Tips
Consider these tips for accurate age calculations:
- The age is calculated based on the Gregorian calendar

- Age can be expressed in multiple formats (years, months, days)
- Leap years affect age calculations for people born on February 29
- Time zones do not affect age calculations as we consider dates only
