能够计算以月为单位的两个日期之间的差异是一件非常符合逻辑的事情，并且在许多业务应用程序中都需要它。这里的几个程序员提供了一些评论，比如“2010年5月1日”和“2010年6月16日”之间的月份有什么不同，2010年12月31日和2011年1月1日之间的月份有什么不同?——无法理解商业应用的基本知识。

以下是以上2条评论的答案——2010年5月1日至2010年6月16日之间的月数为1个月，2010年12月31日至2011年1月1日之间的月数为0。如上面的程序员所建议的那样，将它们计算为1.5个月零1秒是非常愚蠢的。

从事过信用卡、抵押贷款处理、税务处理、租金处理、每月利息计算和其他各种业务解决方案的人会同意这一点。

问题是c#或VB中不包含这样的函数。NET。Datediff只考虑年份或月份组件，因此实际上是无用的。

下面是一些现实生活中的例子，你需要正确地计算月份:

你从2月18日到8月23日住在短租公寓里。你在那里呆了几个月?答案很简单——6个月

你有一个银行账户，每月月底计算并支付利息。您在6月10日存入，同年10月29日取出。你有多少个月的利息?非常简单的答案——4个月(额外的日子也没关系)

在业务应用中，大多数情况下，当您需要计算月份时，是因为您需要根据人类计算时间的方式了解“完整的”月份;而不是基于一些抽象/无关的想法。

这里有一个简单的解决方案，至少对我来说是有效的。它可能不是最快的，因为它在循环中使用了很酷的DateTime的AddMonth功能:

public static int GetMonthsDiff(DateTime start, DateTime end)
{
    if (start > end)
        return GetMonthsDiff(end, start);

    int months = 0;
    do
    {
        start = start.AddMonths(1);
        if (start > end)
            return months;

        months++;
    }
    while (true);
}

如果您想要完整月份的确切数目，总是正的(2000-01-15,2000-02-14返回0)，则考虑完整月份是当您到达下个月的同一天时(类似于年龄计算)

public static int GetMonthsBetween(DateTime from, DateTime to)
{
    if (from > to) return GetMonthsBetween(to, from);

    var monthDiff = Math.Abs((to.Year * 12 + (to.Month - 1)) - (from.Year * 12 + (from.Month - 1)));

    if (from.AddMonths(monthDiff) > to || to.Day < from.Day)
    {
        return monthDiff - 1;
    }
    else
    {
        return monthDiff;
    }
}

编辑原因:旧代码在某些情况下不正确，如:

new { From = new DateTime(1900, 8, 31), To = new DateTime(1901, 8, 30), Result = 11 },

Test cases I used to test the function:

var tests = new[]
{
    new { From = new DateTime(1900, 1, 1), To = new DateTime(1900, 1, 1), Result = 0 },
    new { From = new DateTime(1900, 1, 1), To = new DateTime(1900, 1, 2), Result = 0 },
    new { From = new DateTime(1900, 1, 2), To = new DateTime(1900, 1, 1), Result = 0 },
    new { From = new DateTime(1900, 1, 1), To = new DateTime(1900, 2, 1), Result = 1 },
    new { From = new DateTime(1900, 2, 1), To = new DateTime(1900, 1, 1), Result = 1 },
    new { From = new DateTime(1900, 1, 31), To = new DateTime(1900, 2, 1), Result = 0 },
    new { From = new DateTime(1900, 8, 31), To = new DateTime(1900, 9, 30), Result = 0 },
    new { From = new DateTime(1900, 8, 31), To = new DateTime(1900, 10, 1), Result = 1 },
    new { From = new DateTime(1900, 1, 1), To = new DateTime(1901, 1, 1), Result = 12 },
    new { From = new DateTime(1900, 1, 1), To = new DateTime(1911, 1, 1), Result = 132 },
    new { From = new DateTime(1900, 8, 31), To = new DateTime(1901, 8, 30), Result = 11 },
};

if (FDate.ToDateTime().Year == TDate.ToDateTime().Year)
     nMonths = TDate.ToDateTime().Month - FDate.ToDateTime().Month;

使用野田时间:

LocalDate start = new LocalDate(2013, 1, 5);
LocalDate end = new LocalDate(2014, 6, 1);
Period period = Period.Between(start, end, PeriodUnits.Months);
Console.WriteLine(period.Months); // 16
