Today is
Negative values indicate that the event was before the current or specified date. Hard coded results will eventually go out of date and the results will become negative but local calculations should remain accurate and current as long as computers support javascript in its current form.
You will notice some duplication throughout this page and some other pages because I keep learning and in some cases improving solutions. Because this whole site is a learning experience I make no apology for all the duplications and I am aware that sometimes the results displayed may vary by 1 in either direction due to how some calculations round the results. In the big scheme of things plus or minus 1 makes little or no difference. If you find somthing wrong, by all means let me know, so I can correct the error. I know finger checks happen inadvertently since I am far from perfect. Enjoy the site and use what you can.

Negative values throughout this site indicate an event in the past.

Must modify the code, adding date required for countdown. HOW TO – Example provided in multicountdown.js
Commas improve readability of numbers .
Frozen Ghost - Dream Come True.
Lyrics
Requires inc/multicountdown.js in header section or the code must be added locally. For commas you must include inc/AddComma.js in header section.

Some assumptions to make note of. Some calculations assume that everyone living on,
October 13th 2019 @ 04:26 A.M., is still on the green side of the grass .
Some milestones that are in the future will one day be passed and new calculations
will be required to reflect those changes, as the new reality. Some future calculations exist but are commented out in the code. Negative numbers (e.g. -103) indicate a passed event, requiring update.
There is an oddity in javascript. When you specify a date e.g. May 26 1968 javascript always assumes midnight (0 hours, 0 minutes, 0 seconds). When you specify Today
javascript assumes the current date and current time. The difference is that all calculation counting the days will be off by 1 day unless you specify ThisDate as
midnight Today (frankly I was not overly concerned about 1 day, one way or the other, in these calculations). I am sure most don't care about how many days to or since their next birthday but I took on the challenge simply for the lesson learned. You may notice that javascript also knows Daylight Saving time from Standard time. There is a global battle to eliminate the
twice a year changing of the clocks, so this phenomenon may vanish one day.
How old are you on the day you are born? It is your first day on Earth but are you 0 (zero) days old? Your first year is measured in hours, days, weeks or months not years.
This day is November 2nd 2019 and it just so happens that on this date I am 28,000 days old.

Lyrics
There are lots of numbers on this page, some may not be exacly where you expect to see them, but they are probably there if you look hard enough.
If there is a number that you would like to see added, let me know the event name and event date; I will do my best to add it.
Demonstrate the difference between the rounding of fractional values.
Tiny = 25.0001
Small = 25.49
Large = 25.51
var Math.floor(value);
var Math.round(value);
var Math.ceil(value);
floor always rounds fractions Down to the lower integer value.
round rounds fractions to the nearest integer value Up or Down.
ceil always rounds fractions Up to the Higher integer value.
Math.round(3.14159 * 100) / 100
Returns a number
parseFloat(3.14159.toFixed(2));
Returns a number
parseFloat(3.14159.toFixed(4));
Returns a number
3.14159.toFixed(2);
Returns a string

ERRORS are inevitable. I have not verified every calculation but I made every effort to be accurate. Opinions are cheap; most people have thousands of them, many completely fact free.
Facts matter! If you find an error, please let me know, I will make the correction(s).
