How To Use The Age Calculator

   • Select your birthdate from the calendar interface or type it in directly (DD-MM-YEAR).

The Age Calculator Formula

The calculator uses basic but effective formulas to calculate your age and the time until your next birthday.

Age Calculation

1. Calculate Total Age in Years:
   • The formula subtracts the year of your birth from the current year to find an initial age value.
   • Age in Years = Current Year - Birth Year
2. Adjust for Past Birthday:
   • If your birthday for the current year hasn’t happened yet, the initial age is decremented by one.
   • This adjustment accounts for the difference between your birth month/day and the current month/day.

Birthday Countdown

1. Calculate Days Until Next Birthday:
   • The formula first determines if your birthday has occurred this year.
   • If yes, it calculates the days between today and your birthday in the next year.
   • If no, it calculates the days between today and your birthday in the current year.
   • This involves comparing the current date to the date of your next birthday and using date difference functions to find the number of days in between.

Example Formula for Days Until Next Birthday

• Let:
  • BD = Birthday Date (current or next year)
  • CD = Current Date
• Then:
  • Days Until Birthday = BD - CD
  • This result gives the countdown to your next birthday.

Why Should You Use The Age Calculator

If you’re like me in your late 30’s you might sometimes forget how old you are.

In this day and age we are so busy with life we sometimes forget about the finer things in life, like a birthday for example, or how old we are. It’s more rare to forget our birth date then it is to forget our actual age. You can use our calculator to remind yourself that you’re still young and have lots of years left to live.

According to some research at age 50 we lose some parts of our memory like our age and other minor details of life because our brain starts to shrink. Especially the memory part of the brain. At 50 we still have a long time to live and still make the best of life.

Age can also be a different number in some cultures according to the most popular age calculator on the web. In our example we use the most common age calculator also, where age is counted by increasing years every year from the date of our birth.

You can also use the age calculator to calculate the age of a thing, or any special date like an anniversary in case you might forget. Just enter any date and it will tell you how many years ago that thing, or anniversary happened.
