age

To return the number of full years between now and a given date

Use this function to calculate the current number of full years that have passed since a given date.

The most common application is certainly the calculation of the age of a person based on the date of birth, but other uses are also conceivable:

  • depreciation periods

  • special termination rights that might be possible after a certain term (e.g. real estate loan)

  • determination of anniversaries, etc.

đź’ˇ The current date is always used for this calculation.
