Chronological Age: The amount of time that has passed since birth.

How the Calculation Works
Age calculation process:
- Years: Current year - Birth year (adjusted if birthday hasn't occurred yet this year)
- Months: Calculate remaining months after full years
- Days: Calculate remaining days after full months
- Total Days: Sum of all days lived, accounting for leap years
- Weeks/Hours/Minutes: Convert total days to other time units
Example: Born January 15, 1990, calculating on March 20, 2024:
• Years: 2024 - 1990 = 34 years
• Months: 3 - 1 = 2 months
• Days: 20 - 15 = 5 days
• Result: 34 years, 2 months, 5 days old
Note: Leap years are automatically accounted for in the calculation. The calculator uses the Gregorian calendar system standard in the United States.
