给定代表某人生日的DateTime,我如何计算他们的年龄(以年为单位)?


当前回答

这不是一个直接的答案,但更多的是从准科学的角度对当前问题进行哲学推理。

我认为,这个问题并没有具体说明衡量年龄的单位或文化,大多数答案似乎都假设了一个整数年表示。时间的国际单位制单位是秒,因此正确的通用答案应该是(当然,假设标准化日期时间,不考虑相对论效应):

var lifeInSeconds = (DateTime.Now.Ticks - then.Ticks)/TickFactor;

在基督教以年计算年龄的方法中:

var then = ... // Then, in this case the birthday
var now = DateTime.UtcNow;
int age = now.Year - then.Year;
if (now.AddYears(-age) < then) age--;

在金融领域,当计算通常被称为日计数分数(Day Count Fraction)的东西时,也存在类似的问题,该分数大致是给定时期的年数。年龄问题确实是一个衡量时间的问题。

实际/实际(正确计算所有天数)惯例示例:

DateTime start, end = .... // Whatever, assume start is before end

double startYearContribution = 1 - (double) start.DayOfYear / (double) (DateTime.IsLeapYear(start.Year) ? 366 : 365);
double endYearContribution = (double)end.DayOfYear / (double)(DateTime.IsLeapYear(end.Year) ? 366 : 365);
double middleContribution = (double) (end.Year - start.Year - 1);

double DCF = startYearContribution + endYearContribution + middleContribution;

另一种很常见的衡量时间的方法通常是“序列化”(命名这一日期惯例的家伙一定是认真的“trippin”):

DateTime start, end = .... // Whatever, assume start is before end
int days = (end - start).Days;

我想知道,在相对论年龄(以秒为单位)变得比迄今为止地球围绕太阳周期的粗略近似更有用之前,我们还需要多长时间:)或者换句话说,当一个周期必须给定一个位置或一个表示其自身运动的函数才能有效时:)

其他回答

这可能会起作用:

public override bool IsValid(DateTime value)
{
    _dateOfBirth =  value;
    var yearsOld = (double) (DateTime.Now.Subtract(_dateOfBirth).TotalDays/365);
    if (yearsOld > 18)
        return true;
    return false;
}

这是我们在这里使用的版本。它有效,而且相当简单。这与Jeff的想法相同,但我认为它更清晰一点,因为它分离了减法的逻辑,所以更容易理解。

public static int GetAge(this DateTime dateOfBirth, DateTime dateAsAt)
{
    return dateAsAt.Year - dateOfBirth.Year - (dateOfBirth.DayOfYear < dateAsAt.DayOfYear ? 0 : 1);
}

如果你认为这类事情不清楚,你可以扩展三元运算符使其更清晰。

显然,这是作为DateTime上的一个扩展方法完成的,但很明显,您可以抓取一行代码来完成工作并将其放在任何位置。这里我们有另一个传入DateTime的Extension方法重载。

要使用最近的年龄计算年龄:

var ts = DateTime.Now - new DateTime(1988, 3, 19);
var age = Math.Round(ts.Days / 365.0);

我经常用手指数。我需要看一下日历,以确定事情何时发生变化。这就是我在代码中要做的:

int AgeNow(DateTime birthday)
{
    return AgeAt(DateTime.Now, birthday);
}

int AgeAt(DateTime now, DateTime birthday)
{
    return AgeAt(now, birthday, CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.Calendar);
}

int AgeAt(DateTime now, DateTime birthday, Calendar calendar)
{
    // My age has increased on the morning of my
    // birthday even though I was born in the evening.
    now = now.Date;
    birthday = birthday.Date;

    var age = 0;
    if (now <= birthday) return age; // I am zero now if I am to be born tomorrow.

    while (calendar.AddYears(birthday, age + 1) <= now)
    {
        age++;
    }
    return age;
}

在LINQPad中运行此过程可获得以下结果:

PASSED: someone born on 28 February 1964 is age 4 on 28 February 1968
PASSED: someone born on 29 February 1964 is age 3 on 28 February 1968
PASSED: someone born on 31 December 2016 is age 0 on 01 January 2017

LINQPad中的代码在这里。

对此的简单答案是应用AddYears,如下所示,因为这是唯一一种将年份添加到闰年2月29日的本地方法,并获得普通年份2月28日的正确结果。

有些人认为3月1日是勒普林斯的生日,但.Net和任何官方规则都不支持这一点,也没有常见的逻辑解释为什么一些出生在2月的人应该在另一个月拥有75%的生日。

此外,Age方法可以作为DateTime的扩展添加。由此,您可以以最简单的方式获得年龄:

列表项目

int age=出生日期.age();

public static class DateTimeExtensions
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Calculates the age in years of the current System.DateTime object today.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="birthDate">The date of birth</param>
    /// <returns>Age in years today. 0 is returned for a future date of birth.</returns>
    public static int Age(this DateTime birthDate)
    {
        return Age(birthDate, DateTime.Today);
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Calculates the age in years of the current System.DateTime object on a later date.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="birthDate">The date of birth</param>
    /// <param name="laterDate">The date on which to calculate the age.</param>
    /// <returns>Age in years on a later day. 0 is returned as minimum.</returns>
    public static int Age(this DateTime birthDate, DateTime laterDate)
    {
        int age;
        age = laterDate.Year - birthDate.Year;

        if (age > 0)
        {
            age -= Convert.ToInt32(laterDate.Date < birthDate.Date.AddYears(age));
        }
        else
        {
            age = 0;
        }

        return age;
    }
}

现在,运行此测试:

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        RunTest();
    }

    private static void RunTest()
    {
        DateTime birthDate = new DateTime(2000, 2, 28);
        DateTime laterDate = new DateTime(2011, 2, 27);
        string iso = "yyyy-MM-dd";

        for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++)
        {
            for (int j = 0; j < 3; j++)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("Birth date: " + birthDate.AddDays(i).ToString(iso) + "  Later date: " + laterDate.AddDays(j).ToString(iso) + "  Age: " + birthDate.AddDays(i).Age(laterDate.AddDays(j)).ToString());
            }
        }

        Console.ReadKey();
    }
}

关键日期示例如下:

出生日期:2000-02-29出生日期:2011-02-28年龄:11

输出:

{
    Birth date: 2000-02-28  Later date: 2011-02-27  Age: 10
    Birth date: 2000-02-28  Later date: 2011-02-28  Age: 11
    Birth date: 2000-02-28  Later date: 2011-03-01  Age: 11
    Birth date: 2000-02-29  Later date: 2011-02-27  Age: 10
    Birth date: 2000-02-29  Later date: 2011-02-28  Age: 11
    Birth date: 2000-02-29  Later date: 2011-03-01  Age: 11
    Birth date: 2000-03-01  Later date: 2011-02-27  Age: 10
    Birth date: 2000-03-01  Later date: 2011-02-28  Age: 10
    Birth date: 2000-03-01  Later date: 2011-03-01  Age: 11
}

2012年2月28日晚些时候:

{
    Birth date: 2000-02-28  Later date: 2012-02-28  Age: 12
    Birth date: 2000-02-28  Later date: 2012-02-29  Age: 12
    Birth date: 2000-02-28  Later date: 2012-03-01  Age: 12
    Birth date: 2000-02-29  Later date: 2012-02-28  Age: 11
    Birth date: 2000-02-29  Later date: 2012-02-29  Age: 12
    Birth date: 2000-02-29  Later date: 2012-03-01  Age: 12
    Birth date: 2000-03-01  Later date: 2012-02-28  Age: 11
    Birth date: 2000-03-01  Later date: 2012-02-29  Age: 11
    Birth date: 2000-03-01  Later date: 2012-03-01  Age: 12
