java calculate pregnancy algorithm -


this question has answer here:

hello trying calculate how many days left in pregnancy term think algorithm incorrect

public int getdayspregnantremainder_new() {     gregoriancalendar calendar = new gregoriancalendar();    calendar.set(calendar.hour_of_day, 0);   calendar.set(calendar.minute, 0);    calendar.set(calendar.second, 0);    long diffdays = 280 - ((getduedate().gettime() - calendar.gettime()   .gettime()) / (24 * 60 * 60 * 1000));   return (int) math.abs((diffdays) % 7);    } 

i basing off of 280 day term, getduedate() date object , gettime() returns millisecond unix time

on real world days number reported off one, sometimes, , starting think algorithm wrong, or millisecond time gradually further , further off, or millisecond time not precise enough, or gregorian calendar function rounds weird.

all in i'm not sure, insight appreciated

i don't know algorithm, (is basically) 1 used while tracking wife's pregency...nerds...

save lot of "guess" work , hold of joda-time

public class testduedate {      public static final int weeks_in_pregnancy = 40;     public static final int days_in_pregnancy = weeks_in_pregnancy * 7;      public static void main(string[] args) {          datetime duedate = new datetime();         duedate = duedate.plusdays(days_in_pregnancy);          system.out.println("duedate = " + duedate);          datetime today = datetime.now();          days d = days.daysbetween(today, duedate);          int daysremaining = d.getdays();          int daysin = days_in_pregnancy - daysremaining;          int weekvalue = daysin / 7;         int weekpart = daysin % 7;          string week = weekvalue + "." + weekpart;          system.out.println("days remaining = " + daysremaining);         system.out.println("days in = " + daysin);         system.out.println("week = " + week);      } } 

this output...

duedate = 2014-02-25t14:14:31.159+11:00 days remaining = 279 days in = 1 week = 0.1
