What was the date 290 weeks ago?


Solution

Friday October 05, 2018


290 weeks ago from today was 05 Oct 2018, a Friday. Anytime we’re subtracting halves of the year, we need to ensure that we’re still in 2024. It looks like 290 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 290 weeks.

How we calculated 290 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 290 weeks ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 26 Apr, then set the calculation - 290 weeks, and factored in the year 2024
  2. Noted your current time of year: 290 weeks in April will bring us back to March or further.
  3. Counted backwards weeks from current day: date - 26 Apr, factoring in the 25 days left in April to calculate Friday October 05, 2018
  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 October 05

  • Current date: 26 Apr
  • Day of the week: Friday
  • New Date: Friday October 05, 2018
  • New Date Day of the week: Friday
  • October marks the start of Q4 so counting backward will put you back into the 3 fiscal quarter.
  • This calculation crosses at least one month. Remeber, this will change our day of the week.
  • The solution crosses into a different year.
  • Your date will be a weekend. Consider if you only want workdays in your calculation.

Ways to calculate 290 weeks ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 290 weeks is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 25 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 26 Apr on a calendar, note that it’s Friday, 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 290 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()-290 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -290, cell:cell) for working weeks.

Working weeks in 290 calendar weeks

290 weeks is Friday October 05, 2018 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 290 weeks and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Friday October 05, 2018 date.
