Haven't been coding since college, over 30 years ago

[banjo1971]

I coded in C language in 1991, and K&R's "C Programming Language" Second Edition was just out. I got a B in the class, an A on my final project, but I loved it. Then I got really sick and it took me completely out of college. I'm disabled today, without a job because of my sickness. But I want to relearn C and C++. So I drug out my text books, and bought a few new ones, and tried writing some programs. It's coming back to me.

This is a program that calculates your age in years, months and days, given user input their birthday. It takes care of all cases of leap year. Reads the system date and time. Pretty cool to be doing this again.

If today is 29 April 2023 and a person was born 20 March 2023, then that person is 40 days old.

If I'm reading your program correctly, it outputs...

1 year; 1 month; 29 days

Seems to work fine. I had to add #include <stdlibs.h>

Age Program, by Doug Knecht 1/15/2024.


Enter birth month (xx):   03


Enter birth day (xx):   20


Enter birth year (xxxx):     2023


Today's date:   01-22-2024.


If you were born on 3-20-2023, you are:

0 years, 10 full months, and 33 combined total days (comprised of partial months) old.

Full months are (April, May, June, July, Aug, Sept, Oct, Nov, Dec) ... shouldn't that be 9?
