## Introduction

Date extensions to calculate an age in days and years.

Example:

    date = Date.today - 400

    date.age_in_years #=> 1

    date.age_in_days #=> 400 

Example of custom dates:

    a = Date.new(2000, 10, 31)

    b = Date.new(2011, 12, 31)

    a.age_in_days_on(b) => 4078

 

    a.age_in_years_on(b) => 11
