Add or take away days
Choose a date and how many days. Months and years keep the day of the month, or the month's last day.
Weekend days
Saturday and Sunday. Many offices keep another; tick the days that are not worked.
Dates follow the Gregorian calendar back to year 1, as computers do; before 1582 (1752 in Britain and its colonies) records were kept in the Julian calendar, so old dates may differ from what was written at the time.

Questions people ask
- Is the start day counted?
- No. One day after today is tomorrow, so adding 30 days lands 30 days on, whatever the weekday.
- What happens with 31 January plus a month?
- There is no 31 February, so the answer is the month's last day, 28 or 29 February, and the page says it did that.
- Can it skip weekends?
- Yes: choose Working days, and the country whose holidays to skip; the days stepped over are listed.
