About this tool
Reports the gap between two instants in both calendar units and absolute elapsed time. The two disagree on purpose: months vary in length, and a day crossing a daylight-saving boundary is not 86,400 seconds.
Limitations
- Calendar units and absolute units disagree, and both are shown. A month is not a fixed number of seconds, and days vary across DST transitions.
Questions
- Which figure should I use?
- Calendar units for anything a human will read. Absolute seconds for anything you will compute with.
