Understanding Date Calculations
Date 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)
- Week Calculation: 1 week = 7 days, but months have approximately 4.35 weeks
