I need a function that can return the difference between the below two dates as 24.
DateTime a = new DateTime(2008, 01, 02, 06, 30, 00); DateTime b = new DateTime(2008, 01, 03, 06, 30, 00);

The difference between two dates can be calculated in C# by using the substraction operator - or the DateTime. Subtract() method. The following example demonstrates getting the time interval between two dates using the - operator.
The TimeSpan struct represents a duration of time, whereas DateTime represents a single point in time. Instances of TimeSpan can be expressed in seconds, minutes, hours, or days, and can be either negative or positive.
To get the difference between two-time, subtract time1 from time2. A result is a timedelta object. The timedelta represents a duration which is the difference between two-time to the microsecond resolution. To get a time difference in seconds, use the timedelta.
You can do the following:
TimeSpan duration = b - a; There's plenty of built in methods in the timespan class to do what you need, i.e.
duration.TotalSeconds duration.TotalMinutes More info can be found here.
