Convert Formula Excel to PHP Code (Calc number+date)
- Thread starter stcoid1
- Start date
Code:
<?php
// Define the variables
$Q = 20000;
$I = 2177;
$M = 245;
$J = new DateTime('2024-06-14');
// Calculate the result
$result = ($Q - $I) / $M;
$finalDate = $J->modify("+$result days");
// Output the final date
echo $finalDate->format('Y-m-d');
?>Initialize $Q, $I, $M, and $J with the same values as in your Excel formula. The date is created using PHP's DateTime class, which allows you to manipulate dates easily.
The formula (Q - I) / M is calculated in PHP, which gives you the number of days to add to the date.
Use the modify method of the DateTime class to add the calculated number of days to the original date $J.
Format the resulting date to 'Y-m-d' format and print it.
