人们可以这样计算“年龄”（即“西方人”的方式）：

public static int AgeInYears(this System.DateTime source, System.DateTime target)
  => target.Year - source.Year is int age && age > 0 && source.AddYears(age) > target ? age - 1 : age < 0 && source.AddYears(age) < target ? age + 1 : age;

如果时间方向为“负”，则年龄也将为负。

可以添加一个分数，代表从目标到下一个生日的累计年龄：

public static double AgeInTotalYears(this System.DateTime source, System.DateTime target)
{
  var sign = (source <= target ? 1 : -1);

  var ageInYears = AgeInYears(source, target); // The method above.

  var last = source.AddYears(ageInYears);
  var next = source.AddYears(ageInYears + sign);

  var fractionalAge = (double)(target - last).Ticks / (double)(next - last).Ticks * sign;

  return ageInYears + fractionalAge;
}

分数是过去的时间（从上一个生日到下一个生日）与总时间的比率。

无论是向前还是向后，这两种方法都以相同的方式工作。

无分支解决方案：

public int GetAge(DateOnly birthDate, DateOnly today)
{
    return today.Year - birthDate.Year + (((today.Month << 5) + today.Day - ((birthDate.Month << 5) + birthDate.Day)) >> 31);
}

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。

这是一个非常适合我的功能。没有计算，非常简单。

    public static string ToAge(this DateTime dob, DateTime? toDate = null)
    {
        if (!toDate.HasValue)
            toDate = DateTime.Now;
        var now = toDate.Value;

        if (now.CompareTo(dob) < 0)
            return "Future date";

        int years = now.Year - dob.Year;
        int months = now.Month - dob.Month;
        int days = now.Day - dob.Day;

        if (days < 0)
        {
            months--;
            days = DateTime.DaysInMonth(dob.Year, dob.Month) - dob.Day + now.Day;
        }

        if (months < 0)
        {
            years--;
            months = 12 + months;
        }


        return string.Format("{0} year(s), {1} month(s), {2} days(s)",
            years,
            months,
            days);
    }

这里是一个单元测试：

    [Test]
    public void ToAgeTests()
    {
        var date = new DateTime(2000, 1, 1);
        Assert.AreEqual("0 year(s), 0 month(s), 1 days(s)", new DateTime(1999, 12, 31).ToAge(date));
        Assert.AreEqual("0 year(s), 0 month(s), 0 days(s)", new DateTime(2000, 1, 1).ToAge(date));
        Assert.AreEqual("1 year(s), 0 month(s), 0 days(s)", new DateTime(1999, 1, 1).ToAge(date));
        Assert.AreEqual("0 year(s), 11 month(s), 0 days(s)", new DateTime(1999, 2, 1).ToAge(date));
        Assert.AreEqual("0 year(s), 10 month(s), 25 days(s)", new DateTime(1999, 2, 4).ToAge(date));
        Assert.AreEqual("0 year(s), 10 month(s), 1 days(s)", new DateTime(1999, 2, 28).ToAge(date));

        date = new DateTime(2000, 2, 15);
        Assert.AreEqual("0 year(s), 0 month(s), 28 days(s)", new DateTime(2000, 1, 18).ToAge(date));
    }

这里有一个解决方案。

DateTime dateOfBirth = new DateTime(2000, 4, 18);
DateTime currentDate = DateTime.Now;

int ageInYears = 0;
int ageInMonths = 0;
int ageInDays = 0;

ageInDays = currentDate.Day - dateOfBirth.Day;
ageInMonths = currentDate.Month - dateOfBirth.Month;
ageInYears = currentDate.Year - dateOfBirth.Year;

if (ageInDays < 0)
{
    ageInDays += DateTime.DaysInMonth(currentDate.Year, currentDate.Month);
    ageInMonths = ageInMonths--;

    if (ageInMonths < 0)
    {
        ageInMonths += 12;
        ageInYears--;
    }
}

if (ageInMonths < 0)
{
    ageInMonths += 12;
    ageInYears--;
}

Console.WriteLine("{0}, {1}, {2}", ageInYears, ageInMonths, ageInDays);

人们可以这样计算“年龄”（即“西方人”的方式）：

public static int AgeInYears(this System.DateTime source, System.DateTime target)
  => target.Year - source.Year is int age && age > 0 && source.AddYears(age) > target ? age - 1 : age < 0 && source.AddYears(age) < target ? age + 1 : age;

  var ageInYears = AgeInYears(source, target); // The method above.

  var last = source.AddYears(ageInYears);
  var next = source.AddYears(ageInYears + sign);

  var fractionalAge = (double)(target - last).Ticks / (double)(next - last).Ticks * sign;

  return ageInYears + fractionalAge;
}
