Last Updated on February 14, 2024
Have you ever wondered how you can know the difference between two dates down to the days, hours, minutes and/or seconds? I bet many people have and are still confused. Not anymore, because with one calculator, you can solve the difference between two dates in a jiffy.
I can remember when I thought of it. I wanted to know the number of days remaining for me to be done with my National Youth Service Corp Scheme. Then, I decided to develop an app that could tell me the difference in hours between two dates and also provide me with the information of other units as well. Curious much? yes.
Today, I would very much like to inform you that you can also find out the remaining seconds or minutes for the year of 2018 to be over.
To get answers for the difference between two dates is very easy. All you need are the two dates (start date and end date).
For the purpose of this post made on the 16th of December, 2018. I would like to know the number of minutes left for me to see 2019.
Therefore, our start date is 16 December, 2018 and our end date is 1 January, 2019.
