Recipe 3.4 Converting an Epoch Timestamp to Time and Date Parts
3.4.1 Problem
You
want the set of time and date parts that
corresponds to an epoch timestamp.
3.4.2 Solution
Pass an epoch timestamp to getdate(
):
$time_parts = getdate(163727100);
3.4.3 Discussion
The time parts returned by getdate( ) are detailed
in Table 3-1. These time parts are in local time.
If you want time parts in another time zone corresponding to a
particular epoch timestamp, see Recipe 3.12.
