MATLAB: Time format in seconds since 0-Jan-0000

MATLABtime formatting

Dear Matlab community,

I find myself having to work with a time format expressed in seconds since 0 January 0000. Or at least, I believe so. The given value equals 6.375053639947000e+10, which is indeed the amount of seconds in roughly 2020 years. Unfortunately, I can't find any Matlab function that could convert this into a 'normal' date and time.

Hopefully someone could help me out here,

Kind regards

Jan

You could use datetime.

d = datetime(0,0,0,0,0,6.375053639947000e10)
d = 
   01-Feb-2020 10:19:59

MATLAB: Set value of a variable according to date

No need to convert to a numerical date:

d1 = datetime('01-March-2020');
d2 = datetime('31-May-2020');
date=datetime('10-March-2020');
if d1 < date && date < d2
    seasons = 'spring'
end
seasons = 'spring'

MATLAB: Refer to the value of a variable referenced by the value of another variable

datetime() supports several of the operators supported by numeric types, including comparison operators. For example, check the following code

dts = datetime(2020,1,1)+(0:2);
T = table(dts.', [100; 50; 25], [0; 0; 0], 'VariableNames', {'date', 'n_visitor', 'n_reference_visitor'});
ref_date = datetime(2020,1,2); % January-2-2020
val = T.n_visitor(T.date==ref_date);
T.n_reference_visitor(T.date<=ref_date) = val;
