Why Adding Months Is Different From Adding Days
Days are always exact — 1 day = 24 hours. Months are variable. When you add months, the algorithm advances the month counter and keeps the same day number, or falls back to the last valid day of the month if needed:
- January 31 + 1 month = February 28 (or 29 in a leap year)
- March 31 + 1 month = April 30
- October 31 + 3 months = January 31 of the next year
