Formula
Years = Reference Year − Birth Year (adjust for incomplete birthday)
Months = Reference Month − Birth Month (borrow from years if negative)
Days = Reference Day − Birth Day (borrow from months as needed)
Total Days = floor((Reference − Birth) ÷ 86,400,000 ms)
Example: Born 1990-01-01, reference 2025-11-09 → 35 years, 10 months, 8 days • 13,106 days lived.
