What is the years of all professors in Harry Potter?

It's difficult to give exact ages for all Hogwarts professors in Harry Potter, as J.K. Rowling doesn't explicitly state the ages of most characters. However, we can make some educated guesses based on clues in the books:

Professors with Known or Estimated Ages:

* Albus Dumbledore: Around 150 years old at the time of his death (this includes his lifespan as a young wizard and his later years in the role of Headmaster).

* Minerva McGonagall: Born in 1935 (stated in the books), she would be in her 60s during Harry's time at Hogwarts.

* Severus Snape: Born in 1960 (stated in the books), he would be in his 30s at the start of the series and about 40 at the end.

* Rubeus Hagrid: Born in 1928 (stated in the books), he would be in his 60s during Harry's time at Hogwarts.

* Pomona Sprout: Likely to be in her 60s or 70s, given her position and seniority.

* Filius Flitwick: Likely to be in his 60s or 70s, given his position and seniority.

* Horace Slughorn: Born in 1898 (stated in the books), he would be in his 70s when he returned to Hogwarts.

Professors with Unclear Ages:

* Gilderoy Lockhart: His age isn't explicitly mentioned, but he is described as being "middle-aged" in the second book.

* Remus Lupin: He is described as being "around thirty" at the start of the third book.

* Sybill Trelawney: Her age is never explicitly stated, but she appears quite old.

* Charity Burbage: Her age isn't explicitly mentioned.

* Mad-Eye Moody: His age isn't explicitly mentioned.

Note: It is important to remember that the ages of fictional characters can vary depending on the interpretation of the reader.
