Date Calculator

A Date Calculator allows you to perform various operations with dates, such as:

Add or Subtract days to/from a given date.
Find the difference between two dates (in days, months, or years).
Calculate the day of the week for any given date.
Convert between different date formats.
Here's a simple guide on how to use a Date Calculator for different operations:

1. Add or Subtract Days to/from a Date
You can add or subtract a specific number of days from a date.

Example:
Starting Date: March 1, 2025
Add: 10 days
Result: March 11, 2025
You can also subtract days:

Starting Date: March 1, 2025
Subtract: 10 days
Result: February 19, 2025
2. Calculate the Difference Between Two Dates
Find the difference between two dates in terms of years, months, or days.

Example:
Date 1: March 1, 2025
Date 2: March 11, 2025
Difference: 10 days
3. Calculate the Day of the Week
Given a specific date, you can calculate the day of the week.

Example:
Date: March 1, 2025
Day of the Week: Saturday
4. Date Format Conversion
You can convert a date into different formats, such as:

MM/DD/YYYY (e.g., 03/01/2025)
DD/MM/YYYY (e.g., 01/03/2025)
YYYY-MM-DD (e.g., 2025-03-01)
JavaScript Example: Date Calculator Functions
Here's a simple example of how you can implement these date calculations in JavaScript:

javascript

// 1. Add/Subtract Days to/from a Date
function addDays(date, days) {
var result = new Date(date);
result.setDate(result.getDate() + days);
return result;
}

// 2. Find Difference Between Two Dates in Days
function dateDifference(date1, date2) {
var timeDiff = Math.abs(date2 - date1);
var daysDiff = Math.ceil(timeDiff / (1000 * 3600 * 24));
return daysDiff;
}

// 3. Get Day of the Week for a Date
function getDayOfWeek(date) {
const days = ["Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday"];
return days[date.getDay()];
}

// 4. Convert Date to Specific Format (MM/DD/YYYY)
function formatDate(date) {
var month = date.getMonth() + 1; // Months are zero-based
var day = date.getDate();
var year = date.getFullYear();
return month + '/' + day + '/' + year;
}

// Example Usage
var myDate = new Date("2025-03-01");

console.log("Add 10 days:", addDays(myDate, 10));
console.log("Subtract 10 days:", addDays(myDate, -10));
console.log("Days difference:", dateDifference(myDate, new Date("2025-03-11")));
console.log("Day of the Week:", getDayOfWeek(myDate));
console.log("Formatted Date:", formatDate(myDate));
Use Cases of a Date Calculator:
Project Management: Calculate deadlines, working days, and durations.
Event Planning: Find how many days until an event or calculate the end date.
Legal and Financial Calculations: Compute business days, age, or interest periods.
Birthday or Anniversary Calculation: Find how many days have passed since a birthday or calculate the number of days to the next anniversary.
