Frequently Asked Questions
How are working business days calculated?
The calculator loops through each calendar day in the selected range, counting Monday through Friday as working days and excluding Saturdays and Sundays.
Why should I include or exclude the end date?
When booking a hotel room (nights stayed), you exclude the departure day. When counting total event duration (e.g., a conference from Monday to Friday), you include both start and end days.
Does this calculator account for leap years?
Yes! Standard JavaScript Date objects strictly calculate leap years (including 29-day Februaries) with mathematical precision.
Are my dates or event schedules uploaded anywhere?
No! All calendar math executes 100% locally in your browser. 0 bytes are uploaded.
