Three ways to express a span

Convention	This span	Best for
Plain days	365	Contracts, interest, billing
Calendar Y-M-D	1y 0m 0d	Age, tenure, anniversaries
Workdays	261	Project planning (excl. holidays)

Counting convention: this tool measures the gap between two dates — "Jan 1 to Jan 2" = 1 day, endpoints not both included. Legal/finance contexts sometimes count inclusively ("from…to…inclusive"); always check which convention your contract uses.
