DTimef Function

DTimef - Calculating with times

With the functions with DTime and DTimef can be used to calculate times or time differences in RedCrab.

The DTimef function converts a list of dates and times from an integer representing a point in time. As a result, a list is delivered in the following format [year, month, day, hour, minute, second].

As a interger number, the times can be added or subtracted. The calculated sum is then converted back into a date and time format with DTimef .

Determine current time

Calling DTimef with the 0 argument returns a list of the current date and time.

The result is delivered in a data field whose 6 cells contain the values in the order given above

Values in the result

• 1 <= year <= 9999
• 1 <= month <= 12
• 1 <= day <= 28 | 29 | 30 | 31 depending on the month
• 0 <= hour <= 23
• 0 <= minute <= 59
• 0 <= second <= 59

Syntax

DTimef (List)

Example

d = DTime([Y,M,D,h,m,s]) = 490136170778241

DTimef (d) = 2012 4 12 14 27 18
