[REBOL] Re: How to...? Convert Date of Birth to Age
From: pwoodward:cncdsl at: 3-Jul-2002 10:13
Hey -
why not use the follow approximation:
birthdate: day-month-year
today: now/date
daysold: today - birthdate
yearsold: to-integer daysold / 365.2425
Since to-integer always rounds down, you end up with an a relatively
accurate age. REBOL seems to be pretty good about date arithmetic
(accounting for leap years). I haven't tested the above that extensively,
but it's come up roses for friends and family.
