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
  • If your birthday hasn't occurred yet this year, one year is subtracted from the calculation
  • 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
