Subject: Calculating the age given DOB

Hello, fellow rubyists.

I have a problem. I'm trying to write a simple program which calculates 
the age of a person given the person's date of birth in an instance of a 
Date class. I have no idea what is the best way to do this. I don't feel 
like using any ugly "hacks" to do it, and I wonder if there is any good 
(perhaps mathematical) algorithm out there to solve the problem.
