Hi there,

I believe what Mr. Zu007 is trying to ask is that he wants to writ a program which take a date of birth as input and which then outputs his age in days, hours and minutes.

"recent date" is presumable the current moment, i.e. time()

Unfortunately I have no experience in this, but i googled up some more information for you until one of the experts can shed their light on this.

Hope that helps.

All the best,
