# Age Calculator

Enter a birth date and a reference date to get years, months, days and total days.

## Input data

- **Date of birth** - type: date; default: 1990-01-15
- **Age on** - type: date; default: 2026-08-11

## How it works

Calendar years and months are subtracted first; the remaining period gives the day count.

## Quick examples

- **Born 15 Jan 1990** - Date of birth: 1990-01-15, Age on: 2026-08-11
- **Born 29 Feb 2000** - Date of birth: 2000-02-29, Age on: 2026-08-11
- **Age at the millennium** - Date of birth: 1975-06-30, Age on: 2000-01-01

## Understanding your result

The main result counts complete calendar years and months, followed by the remaining days. Total days expresses the same interval as one continuous duration and includes leap years.
