add + 1 to date_diff the output will 11 be like :

<?php
$d1=date_create("2022-10-10");
$d2=date_create("2022-10-20");
$diff=date_diff($d1,$d2);
echo $result = 1 + $diff->format("%R%a days");
?>

php has inbuilt DateTime functions to get the difference. Below outputs 10 day difference.

$date = new DateTime('2022-10-20');
$next_date = new DateTime('2022-10-30');
echo $date->diff($next_date)->days;
