This makes it ideal for sensitive documents, personal files, and professional workflows where data security matters.
Date Difference Formula
**Formula:** `Duration in Days = (End Date - Start Date) / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24)` Calculates total days between two dates and counts working business days by excluding Saturdays and Sundays.

Here are some practical examples showing how the date calculator works:
- Days between Aug 1, 2026 and Dec 31, 2026 — Calculation:
