Given the current date and birth date, find the present age. 

Examples: 

Input : Birth date = 07/09/1996 
        Present date = 07/12/2017
Output : Present Age = Years: 21  Months: 3  Days: 0
t Age = Years: 7  Months: 11  Days: 21

While calculating the difference in two dates we need to just keep track of two conditions that will do.  

  • If the current date is less than that of the birth date, then that month is not counted, and for subtracting dates we add number of month days to the current date so as to get the difference in the dates.
  • If the current month is less than the birth month, then the current year is not taken into count as this year has not been completed and for getting the difference of months, we subtract by adding 12 to the current month.
  • At the end we just need to subtract the days, months and years to get the difference after the two conditions are dealt with.

Below is the implementation of the above approach is as follows:   

C++




// c program for age calculator
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
  
// function to calculate current age
void findAge(int current_date, int current_month,
             int current_year, int birth_date,
             int birth_month, int birth_year)
{
    // days of every month
    int month[] = { 31, 28, 31, 30, 31, 30,
                    31, 31, 30, 31, 30, 31 };
  
    // if birth date is greater than current date
    // then do not count this month and add 30
    // to the date so as to subtract the date and
    // get the remaining days
    if (birth_date > current_date) {
        current_date
            = current_date + month[birth_month - 1];
        current_month = current_month - 1;
    }
  
    // if birth month exceeds current month, then do
    // not count this year and add 12 to the month so
    // that we can subtract and find out the difference
    if (birth_month > current_month) {
        current_year = current_year - 1;
        current_month = current_month + 12;
    }
  
    // calculate date, month, year
    int calculated_date = current_date - birth_date;
    int calculated_month = current_month - birth_month;
    int calculated_year = current_year - birth_year;
  
    // print the present age
    printf("Present Age\nYears: %d  Months: %d  Days:"
           " %d\n",
           calculated_year, calculated_month,
           calculated_date);
}
  
// driver code to check the above function
int main()
{
    // current dd// mm/yyyy
    int current_date = 7;
    int current_month = 12;
    int current_year = 2017;
  
    // birth dd// mm// yyyy
    int birth_date = 16;
    int birth_month = 12;
    int birth_year = 2009;
  
    // function call to print age
    findAge(current_date, current_month, current_year,
            birth_date, birth_month, birth_year);
    return 0;
}
