Checking the Accuracy of Original Age Calculations

In this video, we will examine the Age calculations in my original Microsoft Access Age video and see just how accurate they are. I built a database to run through 10 million date calculation iterations, and it turns out the original formula is 99.91% accurate. I will, however, show you a more advanced formula that is always 100% accurate. 

Rabid Follower (a YouTube Subscriber) says: I think dividing by 365.2524 could lead to erroneous results pretty often, and it's not "1 in 5000" like you said... It’s more like 1 in 486 from my calculation.
