Calculate Age
Calculating someone's age is pretty straightforward, and here's how! In order for the code to work, you need a DateTime object called BirthDate containing the birthday.
C#
// get the difference in years
int years = DateTime.Now.Year - BirthDate.Year;
// subtract another year if we're before the
// birth day in the current year
if (DateTime.Now.Month < BirthDate.Month ||
(DateTime.Now.Month == BirthDate.Month &&
DateTime.Now.Day < BirthDate.Day))
years--;
VB.NET
' get the difference in years
Dim years As Integer = DateTime.Now.Year - BirthDate.Year
' subtract another year if we're before the
' birth day in the current year
If DateTime.Now.Month < BirthDate.Month Or (DateTime.Now.Month = BirthDate.Month And DateTime.Now.Day < BirthDate.Day) Then
years = years - 1
End If
