How it works
8 weeks equals 56 days. The calculator adds that day-count to today's date and outputs the resulting calendar date. DST transitions don't affect the result because the math is in pure days, not hours.
Weeks are not a unit in the Gregorian calendar — they're a layered convention from Roman/Jewish/Christian sources. The ISO 8601 standard defines weeks as Monday-to-Sunday and uses week-of-year numbering for planning systems. Most US calendars use Sunday-to-Saturday weeks.
