MATLAB SERIAL DATE NUMBER TO DATE STRING HOW TO
Specifying year, month, and day, convert a date to a serial date number.Ĭonvert a date vector to a serial date number.Ĭonvert a date string to a serial date number using the default pivot yearĬonvert the same date string to a serial date number using 1900 as the pivot year. This example shows how to convert between text and data types that represent dates and times. All other units can wrap and have valid negative values.Ĭonvert a date string to a serial date number.

Month values less than 1 are set to be 1.

Values outside the normal range of each array are automatically carried to the next unit (for example month values greater than 12 are carried to years). Y, M, D, H, MI, and S must be arrays of the same size (or any can be a scalar). Date strings with two-character years, e.g., 12-june-12, are assumed to. Returns the serial date number for corresponding elements of the Y, M, D, H, MI, and S (year, month, day, hour, minute, and second) array values. N datenum(DT) converts the date string or date vector DT into a serial date number. Values outside the normal range of each array are automatically "carried" to the next unit. Y, M, and D must be arrays of the same size (or any can be a scalar). Returns the serial date number for corresponding elements of the Y, M, and D (year, month, day) arrays. The default pivot year is the current year minus 50 years. Uses the specified pivot year as the starting year of the 100-year range in which a two-character year resides. If DT is a string, it must be in one of the date formats 0, 1, 2, 6, 13, 14, 15, 16, or 23 as defined by datestr. Date strings with two-character years, e.g., 12-june-12, are assumed to lie within the 100-year period centered about the current year. Ĭonverts the date string or date vector DT into a serial date number. By default, the serial day 1 corresponds to. Date numbers are serial days elapsed from some reference date. The datenum function converts date strings and date vectors (defined by datevec) into serial date numbers. Datenum (MATLAB Functions) MATLAB Function Reference
