What was the date 260 weeks ago?


Solution

Tuesday April 30, 2019


260 weeks ago from today was 30 Apr 2019, a Tuesday. Anytime we’re subtracting halves of the year, we need to ensure that we’re still in 2024. It looks like 260 weeks from now will bring us back to pre 2023 and we’ll need to factor this into our subtraction because it will change the calendar and fiscal years. For larger calculations like this, I start by breaking calendar.day_name[solution.weekday()]n the year, then move into 260 weeks.

How we calculated 260 weeks before today

All of our day calculators are measured and QA'd by our engineer. Read more about the Git process here. But here's how 260 weeks ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 23 Apr, then set the calculation - 260 weeks, and factored in the year 2024
  2. Noted your current time of year: 260 weeks in April will bring us back to March or further.
  3. Counted backwards weeks from current day: date - 23 Apr, factoring in the 0 days left in April to calculate Tuesday April 30, 2019
  4. Did NOT factor in workdays: In this calculation, we kept weekend. See below for just workdays or the fiscal calendar

Tips when solving for April 30

Ways to calculate 260 weeks ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 260 weeks is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 0 days in April + all number of days in each month and the number of days in . Simply add your weeks and choose the length of time, then click "calculate". This calculation does not factor in workdays or holidays (see below!).
  2. Use April's calendar: Begin by identifying 23 Apr on a calendar, note that it’s Tuesday, and the total days in March (trust me, you’ll need this for smaller calculations) and days until last year (double trust me, you'll need this for larger calculations). From there, count backwards 260 times weeks by weeks, subtracting weeks from until your remainder of weeks is 0.
  3. Use excel: For more complex weeks calculations or if you h8 our site (kidding), I use Excel functions like =TODAY()-260 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -260, cell:cell) for working weeks.

Working weeks in 260 calendar weeks

260 weeks is Tuesday April 30, 2019 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 260 weeks and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Tuesday April 30, 2019 date.
