GREETINGS MY DEAR STUDENTS!

Let me inform you of your first activity in this particular subject,Data Structure and Algorithm Analysis. Your aim is to create a VB program that could calculate your period of existence in years , months and days. The algorithm should base on your birthday. You can make use all of you resources, internet , books, and any other source. If you are done with your project. Create a RAR of your folder and upload it on mediafire. Create a screenshot also of your finished program and upload it on tinypic.com. You can check the forums under OFF TOPICS to seek assistance in mediafire and tinypic.com Lastly: Post on Forum under Data Structure Section your uploaded program in mediafire and the screenshot of your program that was uploaded in tinypic.com. LAST SUBMISSION IS ON - JULY 28, 2013 MAXIMUM TOLERANCE AFTER DEADLINE IS THREE DAYS ONLY. Best of Luck to all! And Happy Intramurals 2013! Best Regards; Sir Reynan ################################################################################### Program Name : Period of Existence Calculator Deadline : July 28, 2013 + 3 days for maximum tolerance Note : Codes below are my own algorithm, you can make use of your own, or you can modify this code depending on your own needs. By any means you wish to use the codes below as your basis, you can begin by following the succeeding instruction Instruction: 1. Create a new standar exe project with 1 Form. 2. Add controls: 2 TextBoxes, 1 Label, and 1 Timer. 3. Copy this following code to the form editor form. 4. Nevertheless, bear in mind that all you had to do is calculate how long you had exists in years, months, and days. 'Description: Calculate difference between 2 particular dates ' and show the result in format: day(s), hr:min:sec ' For example: ' The first date = 01/03/2002 17:18:00 and ' The second date = 01/09/2002 09:42:30, then ' the result will output --> 183 day(s), 16:24:30 ' (183 days, 16 hours, 24 minutes, and 30 seconds).
