如何在c#中计算两个日期之间的月差?

c#中是否有相当于VB的DateDiff()方法。我需要找出相隔数年的两个日期之间的月差。文档说我可以像这样使用TimeSpan:

TimeSpan ts = date1 - date2;

但这里的数据是以天为单位的。我不想把这个数字除以30,因为不是每个月都是30天,而且两个操作数的值相差很大,所以我担心除以30可能会得到错误的值。

有什么建议吗?

  var dt1 = (DateTime.Now.Year * 12) + DateTime.Now.Month;
  var dt2 = (DateTime.Now.AddMonths(-13).Year * 12) + DateTime.Now.AddMonths(-13).Month;
  Console.WriteLine(dt1);
  Console.WriteLine(dt2);
  Console.WriteLine((dt1 - dt2));

LINQ的解决方案,

DateTime ToDate = DateTime.Today;
DateTime FromDate = ToDate.Date.AddYears(-1).AddDays(1);

int monthCount = Enumerable.Range(0, 1 + ToDate.Subtract(FromDate).Days)
                    .Select(x => FromDate.AddDays(x))
                    .ToList<DateTime>()
                    .GroupBy(z => new { z.Year, z.Month })
                    .Count();

有3种情况:同一年,前一年和其他年份。

如果日期不重要的话……

public int GetTotalNumberOfMonths(DateTime start, DateTime end)
{
    // work with dates in the right order
    if (start > end)
    {
        var swapper = start;
        start = end;
        end = swapper;
    }

    switch (end.Year - start.Year)
    {
        case 0: // Same year
            return end.Month - start.Month;

        case 1: // last year
            return (12 - start.Month) + end.Month;

        default:
            return 12 * (3 - (end.Year - start.Year)) + (12 - start.Month) + end.Month;
    }
}

下面是一个返回DateTimeSpan的综合解决方案,它与TimeSpan类似,不同之处是它除了时间组件之外还包括所有的日期组件。

用法:

void Main()
{
    DateTime compareTo = DateTime.Parse("8/13/2010 8:33:21 AM");
    DateTime now = DateTime.Parse("2/9/2012 10:10:11 AM");
    var dateSpan = DateTimeSpan.CompareDates(compareTo, now);
    Console.WriteLine("Years: " + dateSpan.Years);
    Console.WriteLine("Months: " + dateSpan.Months);
    Console.WriteLine("Days: " + dateSpan.Days);
    Console.WriteLine("Hours: " + dateSpan.Hours);
    Console.WriteLine("Minutes: " + dateSpan.Minutes);
    Console.WriteLine("Seconds: " + dateSpan.Seconds);
    Console.WriteLine("Milliseconds: " + dateSpan.Milliseconds);
}

输出:

年:1 第五个月: 天:27 时间:1 分钟:36 50秒: 毫秒:0

为了方便起见,我将逻辑集中到DateTimeSpan结构体中,但是您可以将方法CompareDates移动到任何您认为合适的地方。还要注意,哪个日期在另一个日期之前并不重要。

public struct DateTimeSpan
{
    public int Years { get; }
    public int Months { get; }
    public int Days { get; }
    public int Hours { get; }
    public int Minutes { get; }
    public int Seconds { get; }
    public int Milliseconds { get; }

    public DateTimeSpan(int years, int months, int days, int hours, int minutes, int seconds, int milliseconds)
    {
        Years = years;
        Months = months;
        Days = days;
        Hours = hours;
        Minutes = minutes;
        Seconds = seconds;
        Milliseconds = milliseconds;
    }

    enum Phase { Years, Months, Days, Done }

    public static DateTimeSpan CompareDates(DateTime date1, DateTime date2)
    {
        if (date2 < date1)
        {
            var sub = date1;
            date1 = date2;
            date2 = sub;
        }

        DateTime current = date1;
        int years = 0;
        int months = 0;
        int days = 0;

        Phase phase = Phase.Years;
        DateTimeSpan span = new DateTimeSpan();
        int officialDay = current.Day;

        while (phase != Phase.Done)
        {
            switch (phase)
            {
                case Phase.Years:
                    if (current.AddYears(years + 1) > date2)
                    {
                        phase = Phase.Months;
                        current = current.AddYears(years);
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        years++;
                    }
                    break;
                case Phase.Months:
                    if (current.AddMonths(months + 1) > date2)
                    {
                        phase = Phase.Days;
                        current = current.AddMonths(months);
                        if (current.Day < officialDay && officialDay <= DateTime.DaysInMonth(current.Year, current.Month))
                            current = current.AddDays(officialDay - current.Day);
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        months++;
                    }
                    break;
                case Phase.Days:
                    if (current.AddDays(days + 1) > date2)
                    {
                        current = current.AddDays(days);
                        var timespan = date2 - current;
                        span = new DateTimeSpan(years, months, days, timespan.Hours, timespan.Minutes, timespan.Seconds, timespan.Milliseconds);
                        phase = Phase.Done;
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        days++;
                    }
                    break;
            }
        }

        return span;
    }
}

你可以这样做

if ( date1.AddMonths(x) > date2 )

似乎DateTimeSpan解决方案使许多人满意。我不知道。让我们考虑一下:

BeginDate = 1972/2/29销售= 1972/4/28。

基于DateTimeSpan的答案是:

1年(s), 2个月(s)和0天(s)

我实现了一个方法,在此基础上,答案是:

1年、1个月及28天

显然没有两个月的时间。我想说的是,因为我们在开始日期的月末,剩下的实际上是整个3月加上结束日期(4月)的月份所经过的天数,所以1个月零28天。

如果你读到这里,你有兴趣,我把方法贴在下面。我在评论中解释了我所做的假设,因为有多少个月,月份的概念是一个不断变化的目标。多次测试,看看答案是否有意义。我通常选择相邻年份的考试日期,一旦我确认了答案,我就会前后移动一两天。到目前为止,它看起来不错,我相信你会发现一些bug:D。代码可能看起来有点粗糙,但我希望它足够清楚:

static void Main(string[] args) {
        DateTime EndDate = new DateTime(1973, 4, 28);
        DateTime BeginDate = new DateTime(1972, 2, 29);
        int years, months, days;
        GetYearsMonthsDays(EndDate, BeginDate, out years, out months, out days);
        Console.WriteLine($"{years} year(s), {months} month(s) and {days} day(s)");
    }
