Other Sourcerer questions

Hi,
I have a custom field for birth, a date value, in Joomla Article about people.
Let's call it "people_birthday"
I would like to print the age of the the current people on screen.
I think I know how to calculate an age from a date value in PHP, but I don't know how to catch the custom field value with Sourcerer.
Any advice ?
Thanks in advance.

Not really a Sourcerer question. This is just a Joomla PHP question.
A simple Google for "joomla get custom field value in php" reveals a lot.
Otherwise ask on forum.joomla.org/
If you are using Sourcerer inside the article itself, you already have access to the $article object.
To see what data it contains you can do something like:
