Date Range Splitter
Split a date range into a chosen number of equal-length segments, useful for dividing a project or semester into phases.
Worked example
January 1 through February 1, 2027 (31 elapsed days) split into 2 segments gives 16 and 15 days: 31 does not divide evenly by 2, so the earlier segment absorbs the extra day rather than the split being silently uneven in an unpredictable direction.
Limitations
This distributes elapsed days equally; it does not align segments to calendar month or week boundaries.
Frequently asked questions
- What happens if the range doesn't divide evenly?
- The earliest segments each get one extra day until the remainder is used up, so segment lengths never differ by more than a day.
