#### 1. for getting no of days between two dates

`javascript

let diffDays = DATE_DIFF('2019-07-07', '2019-03-03', 'D').output;

console.log(diffDays);//126

`

#### 2. For getting age ( Ex. birthday July 07, 1991) or year difference

`javascript

let dateDiff = DATE_DIFF('1991-07-07', 'Y').outputs;

console.log(dateDiff.years +' years '+ dateDiff.months +' months ' + dateDiff.days +' days');//28 years 0 months 21 days

`

#### 3. For getting age ( Ex. birthday July 07, 1991) from definite date like Jan 01, 2019

`javascript

let dateDiff = DATE_DIFF('1991-07-07', '2019-01-01', 'Y').outputs;

console.log(dateDiff.years +' years '+ dateDiff.months +' months ' + dateDiff.days +' days');//27 years 5 months 25 days

`

#### 4. For getting time difference in hours

`javascript

let timeDiff = DATE_DIFF('2019-01-01 12:40:28', '2019-01-01 23:59:59', 'H').outputs;

console.log(timeDiff.hours +' hours '+ timeDiff.minutes +' minutes ' + timeDiff.seconds +' seconds');//11 hours 19 minutes 31 seconds

`

#### 5. For getting total difference of two dates in all format like years, months, days etc

`javascript

let dateDiff = DATE_DIFF('1991-07-07', '2019-01-01', 'Y').totals;

console.log('Total years '+ dateDiff.years +' years');//Total years: 27 years

console.log('Total months '+ dateDiff.months +' months');//Total months: 329 months

console.log('Total days ' + dateDiff.days +' days');//Total days: 10040 days
