How to get the first day and the last day of the current year in c#

How do I get the first day and the last day of the current year in c#

This?

int year = DateTime.Now.Year;
DateTime firstDay = new DateTime(year, 1, 1);
DateTime lastDay = new DateTime(year, 12, 31);

Try this:

var firstDay = new DateTime(DateTime.Now.Year, 1, 1);
var lastDay = new DateTime(DateTime.Now.Year, 12, 31);

None of the answers here actually account for the last day. In my opinion, the correct way to do this would be:

    int year = DateTime.Now.Year;
    DateTime firstDay = new DateTime(year , 1, 1);
    DateTime lastDay = firstDay.AddYears(1).AddTicks(-1)

Hope this would be valuable to someone :)

Why not getting the first day of the next calendar year (month 1, day 1) and subtract one day.
