# age calculation in C#

Hi [Expert](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/13120/an-expert-financial-advice-will-improve-your-finances)!

Hi Benjamin Richards!

You can use this way!

// Get current date\
DateTime today = DateTime.Today;\
// Assing given date\
DateTime bday = DateTime.Parse("12/05/1986 12:00:00 AM");\
// Get difference between two date\
int age = today.Year - bday.Year;
