  4. Save the result with the inputs and assumptions for reuse.

Examples

  • Example scenario: project managers tracking summarizing a calendar span between June 1, 2026 and August 30, 2026 can share the result as a planning baseline.
  • Example verification: compare the calculator output for June 1, 2026 to August 30, 2026 with a manual count for confidence.
  • Example policy check: plug in June 1, 2026 and August 30, 2026, then note which days are excluded based on inclusive vs. exclusive counting and calendar vs. working days.

Why it matters
