Frequently Asked Questions

How does the tool handle leap years?

The calculator correctly accounts for leap years. February 29 is included in calculations when the date range spans a leap year, so durations are always accurate.

Can I calculate the difference in business days?

Currently the tool calculates calendar days. Business day calculations (excluding weekends and holidays) are not yet supported.

What date formats are supported?

The tool uses your browser's native date picker, which displays dates in your locale's format. Internally, all dates are processed as standard date values regardless of display format.

Is there a limit on how far apart dates can be?

No practical limit. The tool can calculate differences between dates spanning centuries — useful for historical research or far-future planning.
