Date Calculation Tips
Month Calculations
When adding months, the calculator preserves the day of the month when possible. For example, January 31 + 1 month = February 28/29.
Year Calculations
Adding years maintains the exact date unless it's February 29 in a non-leap year, which becomes February 28.
Business Planning
Use the weekend detection feature to adjust deadlines that fall on weekends to the nearest business day.
Large Time Spans
For calculations spanning several years, consider using years or months instead of days for more accurate results.
