# Age (DateTimeOffset)

| **Name**    | ***Age With Offset***                                                                                                                                                     |
| ----------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Syntax      | Age (DateTimeWithOffset start, DateTimeWithOffset end, Integer interval)                                                                                                  |
| Purpose     | To compute the difference between two specified date time offset values, based on interval type (year, Month etc.) provided in integer form.                              |
| Description | Compute the difference between two dates and return age in a specified interval. Valid values for interval: 1=Year, 2=Month, 3=Week, 4=Day, 5=Hour, 6=Minute, or 7=Second |
| Return Type | Int64                                                                                                                                                                     |
| Parameters  | <p>start \[System.DateTimeOffset]</p><p>end \[System.DateTimeOffset]</p><p>interval \[System.Int32]</p>                                                                   |

**Example**

In this example, we will pass date time offset values, and an integer value (indicating a specific interval) to the function transformation object using a *Variables* object.

Where,

*start* = 01/03/2022

*end* = 06/06/2022

*interval (3=week)* = 3

![](/files/PDl9ogNRuClSIrF0NixK)

In the output window, you can see that the provided interval value, indicating weeks, has been used to compute the age between the two specified date time offset values.
