如何在c#中计算两个日期之间的月差?

c#中是否有相当于VB的DateDiff()方法。我需要找出相隔数年的两个日期之间的月差。文档说我可以像这样使用TimeSpan:

TimeSpan ts = date1 - date2;

但这里的数据是以天为单位的。我不想把这个数字除以30,因为不是每个月都是30天,而且两个操作数的值相差很大,所以我担心除以30可能会得到错误的值。

有什么建议吗?

你可以使用野田时间https://nodatime.org/

LocalDate start = new LocalDate(2010, 1, 5);
LocalDate end = new LocalDate(2012, 6, 1);
Period period = Period.Between(start, end, PeriodUnits.Months);
Console.WriteLine(period.Months);

其他回答

假设这个月的日期不相关(即2011.1.1和2010.12.31之间的差为1),date1 > date2为正值,date2 > date1为负值

((date1.Year - date2.Year) * 12) + date1.Month - date2.Month

或者,假设你想要两个日期之间的“平均月”的大致数字,下面的方法应该适用于所有日期,但日期差异非常大。

date1.Subtract(date2).Days / (365.25 / 12)

注意,如果您要使用后一种解决方案,那么您的单元测试应该声明应用程序设计使用的最宽日期范围,并相应地验证计算结果。

如果使用“平均月份”方法,“每年平均天数”的更准确数字是365.2425。

public partial class Form1 : Form

    public Form1()

        label3.Text = new DateDifference(Convert.ToDateTime("2018-09-13"), Convert.ToDateTime("2018-11-15")).ToString();
        label2.Text = new DateDifference(Convert.ToDateTime("2018-10-12"), Convert.ToDateTime("2018-11-15")).ToString();

        DateDifference oDateDifference = new DateDifference(Convert.ToDateTime("2018-11-12"));
       label1.Text  =   oDateDifference.ToString();

你可以使用野田时间https://nodatime.org/

LocalDate start = new LocalDate(2010, 1, 5);
LocalDate end = new LocalDate(2012, 6, 1);
Period period = Period.Between(start, end, PeriodUnits.Months);
Console.WriteLine(period.Months);

我当时在做一个项目,只需要几年和几个月。

/// <summary>
/// Get the total months between two date.  This will count whole months and not care about the day.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="firstDate">First date.</param>
/// <param name="lastDate">Last date.</param>
/// <returns>Number of month apart.</returns>
private static int GetTotalMonths(DateOnly firstDate, DateOnly lastDate)
{
    int yearsApart = lastDate.Year - firstDate.Year;
    int monthsApart = lastDate.Month - firstDate.Month;
    return (yearsApart * 12) + monthsApart;
}

private static int GetTotalMonths(DateTime firstDate, DateTime lastDate)
{
    return GetTotalMonths(DateOnly.FromDateTime(firstDate), DateOnly.FromDateTime(lastDate));
}

我们是这样做的:

public static int MonthDiff(DateTime date1, DateTime date2)
{
    if (date1.Month < date2.Month)
    {
        return (date2.Year - date1.Year) * 12 + date2.Month - date1.Month;
    }
    else
    {
        return (date2.Year - date1.Year - 1) * 12 + date2.Month - date1.Month + 12;
    }
}
