How do I calculate difference in years and months given a start and end [duplicate]

Answer 1

I think the number of the months is ambiguous as each month get the different number of days. However, if based on DateTime.MinValue, you can use like:

        TimeSpan difference = endDate - startDate;

        DateTime age = DateTime.MinValue + difference;

        // Min value is 01/01/0001

        int ageInYears = age.Year - 1;
        int ageInMonths = age.Month - 1;
        int ageInDays = age.Day - 1;

        Console.WriteLine("{0}, {1}, {2}", ageInYears, ageInMonths, ageInDays);
