36 days ago from today was 05 Jan 2025, a Sunday. As we approach calculations over month in the past, the 28 days in February play significant roles, alongside the day of the week. Since today is Monday, we'll need to account for a full week before hitting weekend days. Counting backwards from today skips several weekends, meaning that subtracting 36 days takes us from the middle of of February to potentially crossing far beyond February or January. For those of us focusing on workdays, subtracting 36 days ago necessitates adjustments for the fiscal calendar (don’t worry, I've accounted for it below).
All of our day calculators are measured and QA'd by our engineer. Read more about the Git process here. But here's how 36 days ago gets calculated on each visit:
36 days is Sunday January 05, 2025 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 36 days and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Sunday January 05, 2025 date.
