Want to figure out the date that is exactly six hundred days before Apr 12, 2013 without counting?
Your starting date is April 12, 2013 so that means that 600 days earlier would be August 21, 2011.
You can check this by using the date difference calculator to measure the number of days before Aug 21, 2011 to Apr 12, 2013.
August 21, 2011 is a Sunday. It is the 233rd day of the year, and in the 33rd week of the year (assuming each week starts on a Sunday), or the 3rd quarter of the year. There are 31 days in this month. 2011 is not a leap year, so there are 365 days in this year. The short form for this date used in the United States is 08/21/2011, and almost everywhere else in the world it's 21/08/2011.
In some cases, you might want to skip weekends and count only the weekdays. This could be useful if you know you have a deadline based on a certain number of business days. If you are trying to see what day falls on the exact date difference of 600 weekdays before Apr 12, 2013, you can count up each day skipping Saturdays and Sundays.
Start your calculation with Apr 12, 2013, which falls on a Friday. Counting forward, the next day would be a Monday.

If you're counting business days, don't forget to adjust this date for any holidays.
