I'm looking to count the dates covered (inclusive) between two DateTimes (not .TotalDays)
For example:
2012-2-1 14:00 to 2012-2-2 23:00 -> 2
2012-2-1 14:00 to 2012-2-2 10:00 -> 2
2012-2-1 14:00 to 2012-2-1 15:00 -> 1
2012-1-1 00:00 to 2012-12-31 23:59 -> 366
I can get this functionality with the code below:
DateTime dt1 = new DateTime(2000,1,2,12,00,00);
DateTime dt2 = new DateTime(2000,1,3,03,00,00);
int count = 0;
for (DateTime date = dt1; date.Date <= dt2.Date; date = date.AddDays(1))
count++;
return count;
Is there a better way?
