Date Converter

[Whistler]

I seem to remember a simple little Visual Basic program I had long ago that would take any date on the calendar and convert it to TC Standard.

For example, you'd plug in: January 22, 2681 and it spits out: 2681.022

Saved a lot of counting and I can't find it on the download archives. Anyone else have it?

I don't know about a program, but the CIC front page will do it for you.

Manually type a URL in for any date in this format: https://www.wcnews.com/news/2012/11/14/ and then look at the red dateline bar. Note that 2012 was a leap year, so use 2011 for non-leap.

That will certainly do...thanks. Using it for date calculation during the 2600's.

You can also get away with typing the day into Wikipedia. It'll tell you off the bat that the day is "the xth day of the year (xth day in leap years)". I find it handy for going the other way, though.

It would be neat to have an app that would do that conversion automatically...maybe couple it with a perpetual calendar so you could tell what day of the week an event fell (will fall?) on.

I may have to look into that. Been a while since I've done any coding.
