/* This answer is about date and time
The syntax for date and time is:
*/
date(format,timestamp)
/* Here, format is required and it specifies the format of the timestamp,
while timestamp is optional and specifies a timestamp. Default value
for timestamp is current date and time */
#Some characters that are commonly used for dates are:
l (Lowercase L) - Represents day of the week
d - Tells the day of the month
m - Tells the month of the year
Y - Represents a year
echo "Today is " . date("m/d/Y") . "<br>";
echo "Today is " . date("m.d.Y") . "<br>";
echo "Today is " . date("m-d-Y") . "<br>";
echo "Today is " . date("l");
#Some characters that are commonly used for time are:
H - 24-hour format of an hour (0 to 23)
h - 12-hour format of an hour (0 to 12)
i - Minute with leading zeros (0 to 59)
s - Seconds with leading zeros (0 to 59)
a - am or pm
echo "The time is " . date("h:i:sa");
echo "The time is " . date("H:i:s");
#Set timezones
