MATLAB: How to calculate time elapsed

statistics

Hi, I have two time intervals in the following format:
t1=2/4/2016 1:53:19.180 AM t2=2/4/2016 1:54:49.368 AM
I want to calculate time elapsed between t1 &t2 in seconds. I used 'etime' command, but not succeed. Kindly some one help how to calculate.
Sincerely, Mekala

>> s1 = '2/4/2016 1:53:19.180 AM';
>> s2 = '2/4/2016 1:54:49.368 AM';
>> t1 = datevec(s1,'dd/mm/yyyy HH:MM:SS.FFF AM');
>> t2 = datevec(s2,'dd/mm/yyyy HH:MM:SS.FFF AM');
>> etime(t2,t1)
ans =
   90.1880
