About the year 2020

2020 began on a Wednesday and was a leap year, with 366 days and a 29 February. 2,417 days have passed since 1 January 2020.

Age in whole years only counts the birthday that has already happened. That is why two people born in the same year can be different ages today — and why the answer flips from 5 to 6 on the birthday itself.
