这里有一个单行线：

int age = new DateTime(DateTime.Now.Subtract(birthday).Ticks).Year-1;

人们可以这样计算“年龄”（即“西方人”的方式）：

public static int AgeInYears(this System.DateTime source, System.DateTime target)
  => target.Year - source.Year is int age && age > 0 && source.AddYears(age) > target ? age - 1 : age < 0 && source.AddYears(age) < target ? age + 1 : age;

如果时间方向为“负”，则年龄也将为负。

可以添加一个分数，代表从目标到下一个生日的累计年龄：

public static double AgeInTotalYears(this System.DateTime source, System.DateTime target)
{
  var sign = (source <= target ? 1 : -1);

  var ageInYears = AgeInYears(source, target); // The method above.

  var last = source.AddYears(ageInYears);
  var next = source.AddYears(ageInYears + sign);

  var fractionalAge = (double)(target - last).Ticks / (double)(next - last).Ticks * sign;

  return ageInYears + fractionalAge;
}

分数是过去的时间（从上一个生日到下一个生日）与总时间的比率。

无论是向前还是向后，这两种方法都以相同的方式工作。

这里有一个非常简单且易于遵循的示例。

private int CalculateAge()
{
//get birthdate
   DateTime dtBirth = Convert.ToDateTime(BirthDatePicker.Value);
   int byear = dtBirth.Year;
   int bmonth = dtBirth.Month;
   int bday = dtBirth.Day;
   DateTime dtToday = DateTime.Now;
   int tYear = dtToday.Year;
   int tmonth = dtToday.Month;
   int tday = dtToday.Day;
   int age = tYear - byear;
   if (bmonth < tmonth)
       age--;
   else if (bmonth == tmonth && bday>tday)
   {
       age--;
   }
return age;
}

这是我们在这里使用的版本。它有效，而且相当简单。这与Jeff的想法相同，但我认为它更清晰一点，因为它分离了减法的逻辑，所以更容易理解。

public static int GetAge(this DateTime dateOfBirth, DateTime dateAsAt)
{
    return dateAsAt.Year - dateOfBirth.Year - (dateOfBirth.DayOfYear < dateAsAt.DayOfYear ? 0 : 1);
}

如果你认为这类事情不清楚，你可以扩展三元运算符使其更清晰。

显然，这是作为DateTime上的一个扩展方法完成的，但很明显，您可以抓取一行代码来完成工作并将其放在任何位置。这里我们有另一个传入DateTime的Extension方法重载。

我认为TimeSpan包含了我们所需要的一切，而不必求助于365.25（或任何其他近似值）。扩展Aug的示例：

DateTime myBD = new DateTime(1980, 10, 10);
TimeSpan difference = DateTime.Now.Subtract(myBD);

textBox1.Text = difference.Years + " years " + difference.Months + " Months " + difference.Days + " days";

我们是否需要考虑小于1岁的人？作为中国文化，我们将小婴儿的年龄描述为2个月或4周。

下面是我的实现，它不像我想象的那么简单，尤其是处理2/28这样的日期。

public static string HowOld(DateTime birthday, DateTime now)
{
    if (now < birthday)
        throw new ArgumentOutOfRangeException("birthday must be less than now.");

    TimeSpan diff = now - birthday;
    int diffDays = (int)diff.TotalDays;

    if (diffDays > 7)//year, month and week
    {
        int age = now.Year - birthday.Year;

        if (birthday > now.AddYears(-age))
            age--;

        if (age > 0)
        {
            return age + (age > 1 ? " years" : " year");
        }
        else
        {// month and week
            DateTime d = birthday;
            int diffMonth = 1;

            while (d.AddMonths(diffMonth) <= now)
            {
                diffMonth++;
            }

            age = diffMonth-1;

            if (age == 1 && d.Day > now.Day)
                age--;

            if (age > 0)
            {
                return age + (age > 1 ? " months" : " month");
            }
            else
            {
                age = diffDays / 7;
                return age + (age > 1 ? " weeks" : " week");
            }
        }
    }
    else if (diffDays > 0)
    {
        int age = diffDays;
        return age + (age > 1 ? " days" : " day");
    }
    else
    {
        int age = diffDays;
        return "just born";
    }
}

此实现已通过以下测试用例。

    Assert.AreEqual("5 days", age);

    age = HowOld(new DateTime(2012, 11, 29), new DateTime(2012, 11, 30));
    Assert.AreEqual("1 day", age);

    age = HowOld(new DateTime(2012, 11, 30), new DateTime(2012, 11, 30));
    Assert.AreEqual("just born", age);

    age = HowOld(new DateTime(2000, 2, 29), new DateTime(2009, 2, 28));
    Assert.AreEqual("8 years", age);

    age = HowOld(new DateTime(2000, 2, 29), new DateTime(2009, 3, 1));
    Assert.AreEqual("9 years", age);

    Exception e = null;

    try
    {
        age = HowOld(new DateTime(2012, 12, 1), new DateTime(2012, 11, 30));
    }
    catch (ArgumentOutOfRangeException ex)
    {
        e = ex;
    }

    Assert.IsTrue(e != null);
}

希望这有帮助。
