Hello All,
The excel Convert function is not working correctly. Please see the example below
Lets say how many days andseconds are there in a year?
What logic is excel using to arrive at 365.25 days in a year?
| Year | second | Days |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | =CONVERT(A2,"yr","sec") | =CONVERT(A2,"yr","d") |
| Year | second | Days |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 31557600 | 365.25 |

365.25 days is actually correct. It is the reason for having leap years to correlate the calendar because we can't set the calendar to a quarter of a day.
