55 days ago from today was 25 Mar 2024, a Monday. As we approach calculations over month in the past, the 31 days in May play significant roles, alongside the day of the week. Since today is Sunday, the calculation could get a bit more complicated if you want to account for business days becuase it's the weekend. Counting backwards from today skips several weekends, meaning that subtracting 55 days takes us from the middle of of May to potentially crossing far beyond May or April. For those of us focusing on workdays, subtracting 55 days ago necessitates adjustments for the fiscal calendar (don’t worry, I've accounted for it below).
All of our day calculators are measured and QA'd by our engineer. Read more about the Git process here. But here's how 55 days ago gets calculated on each visit:
55 days is Monday March 25, 2024 or could be if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 55 days and only subtracts by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Monday March 25, 2024 date.
