Could you guys help me?

I'm from scratch, and i'm trying to replicate the "days since 2000" block.
I need the block because I am currently porting a scratch project into a snap project, and it includes that block.
I think it's math, but i can't think of how to do it.

Please help :smiling_face_with_tear:

If you find the timestamp for 00:00 Jan 1 2000 and then subtract the value of the current time in milliseconds reporter and then divide that by number of milliseconds in a day then you should get the same number (or maybe you have to use 00:00 Jan 2001 - I don 't know what the Scratch reporter gives)

This works for me (i think).

Thank you!

Using my algorithm using my Windows calculator, here's my best:

You actually gave me an idea for a similar block, in the "Time" category.

Instead of yelling and not helping, maybe actually link to the FAQ section instead:

(As well as the rules:)

(the rules page don't work really well here,because they think that every non-jerk should know the rules(I think so too) so the rule page contains no rules)
