Calendar Calculations

No more counting days on a calendar!

Adding or subtracting time from dates

10 June + 3 weeks                          | 1 July
April 1, 2019 − 3 months 5 days            | 25 December 2018

12/02/1988 + 32 years                      | 12 February 2020

Find the amount of time between two dates

January 10 - February 5             | 3 weeks 5 days

3 March to 30 May                   | 2 months 3 weeks 6 days

days since July 15                  | 57 days

days between 3 March and 30 May     | 88 days

Monday - Friday                     | 4 days

Intervals of time are calculated from midday on the first date midday to midday on the last date in the interval.

Use the inclusive interval function if you want to include both the starting and ending date in the interval (see below)

Inclusive intervals of time between two dates

Monday through Friday                | 5 days
April 1 through April 30 in days     | 30 days

Week numbers (ISO 8601)

week of year                                   | 36
week number on march 12, 2021                  | 10

How many days in a month or quarter

days in Q3                         | 92 days
days in February 2020              | 29 days

Find the midpoint between two dates

midpoint between March 12 and April 5        | 24 March    
halfway between today and next Thursday      | 13 September

Notes on Ambiguity in Calendar Calculations

Ambiguous months

Unlike days and weeks, months are not clearly defined in terms of seconds. Soulver attempts to do the most logical thing given the expression. It's smart at taking into account leap years, and other calendar peculiarities:

Feb 28 + 1 month                           | 28 March
January 31 2020 + 1 month                  | February 29 2020

Dates with unspecified years

A date without the year specified may use either the current year or the following year.

# In December 2019

// next year is assumed, as the nearest January is in the future
January 12 + 3 weeks                       | 2 February 2020

// this year is assumed, as the month is still recently in the past
November 1 - 5 days                        | 27 October 2019
