Practical Example Calculation

Scenario Context: Calculating the duration between January 1, 2026, and May 10, 2026.

Step 1: Count full days in intermediate months: Jan has 31 days, Feb has 28 days (non-leap), March has 31 days, April has 30 days.
Step 2: Sum the intermediate month days: 31 + 28 + 31 + 30 = 120 days.
Step 3: Add the start offset and the partial end month days: Jan 1 is day 0, May 10 is 9 days into May (excluding start, or 10 days including end).
Step 4: Net difference is exactly 129 days.
The duration is 129 days (or 18 weeks and 3 days).
