How the Age Calculation Works
1. Basic Calculation of Age
- Convert both dates to milliseconds since January 1, 1970 (Unix timestamp)
- Find the absolute difference between these timestamps
- Convert the difference to days by dividing by:
- 1000 (milliseconds to seconds)
- 60 (seconds to minutes)
- 60 (minutes to hours)
- 24 (hours to days)
2. Considerations for the Calculation:
- Leap Years: Automatically handled by the JavaScript Date object
- Month Lengths: Accounts for varying month lengths (28-31 days)
- Time Zones: Calculations are done in the local time zone to avoid date shifts
3. Formula Used
Total Days = |Date2 - Date1| / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24)
Where:
Date1 = Birth date
Date2 = Current date
1000 * 60 * 60 * 24 = Milliseconds in a day
