Solution

Wednesday December 28, 2005

0

1000 weeks ago from today was 28 Dec 2005, a Wednesday. Anytime we’re subtracting halves of the year, we need to ensure that we’re still in 2025. It looks like 1000 weeks from now will bring us back to pre 2024 and we’ll need to factor this into our subtraction because it will change the calendar and fiscal years. For larger calculations like this, I start by subtracting total days, then counting backwards 7000 days on a calendar until getting my solution of Wednesday December 28, 2005.

How we calculated 1000 weeks before today

All of our day calculators are measured and QA'd by our engineer. Read more about the Git process here. But here's how 1000 weeks ago gets calculated on each visit:

  1. We started with date inputs: used current day of 26 Feb, then set the calculation - 1000 weeks, and factored in the year 2025
  2. Noted your current time of year: 1000 weeks in February will bring us back to January or further.
  3. Counted backwards weeks from current day: date - 26 Feb, factoring in the 26 days left in February to calculate Wednesday December 28, 2005
  4. Did NOT factor in workdays: In this calculation, we kept weekend. See below for just workdays or the fiscal calendar

Tips when solving for December 28

  • Current date: 26 Feb
  • Day of the week: Wednesday
  • New Date: Wednesday December 28, 2005
  • New Date Day of the week: Wednesday
  • December marks the end of the year, so account for all the out of office notifications when counting backwards.
  • This calculation crosses at least one month. Remeber, this will change our day of the week.
  • The solution crosses into a different year.

Ways to calculate 1000 weeks ago

  1. Calculate it: Start with a time ago calculator. 1000 weeks is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the 26 days in February + all number of days in each month and the number of days in . Simply add your weeks and choose the length of time, then click "calculate". This calculation does not factor in workdays or holidays (see below!).
  2. Use February's calendar: Begin by identifying 26 Feb on a calendar, note that it’s Wednesday, and the total days in January (trust me, you’ll need this for smaller calculations) and days until last year (double trust me, you'll need this for larger calculations). From there, count backwards 1000 times weeks by weeks, subtracting weeks from until your remainder of weeks is 0.
  3. Use excel: For more complex weeks calculations or if you h8 our site (kidding), I use Excel functions like =TODAY()-1000 to get or =WORKDAY(TODAY()), -1000, cell:cell) for working weeks.

Working weeks in 1000 calendar weeks

1000 weeks is Wednesday December 28, 2005 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 1000 weeks and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Wednesday December 28, 2005 date.
