CDF_ENCODE_TT2000

The CDF_ENCODE_TT2000 function encodes a single value or an array of CDF_TIME_TT2000 value(s) into the standard date and time character string(s). The default format of the string is ISO 8601 format:

yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss.cccuuunnn

Examples

epoch_string = '2005-12-04T20:19:18.176321123'

epoch = CDF_PARSE_TT2000(epoch_string)

PRINT, CDF_ENCODE_TT2000(epoch)

CDF_TT2000, epoch2, 2005, 12, 4, 20, 19, 18, 176, 321, /compute

PRINT, CDF_ENCODE_TT2000(epoch2, epoch=0)

IDL Output

2005-12-04T20:19:18.176321123

04-Dec-2005 20:19:18.176321123

Syntax

Result = CDF_ENCODE_TT2000(Epoch [, EPOCH={0 | 1 | 2 | 3}] )

Return Value

Returns a string containing the CDF_TIME_TT2000 values.

Arguments

Epoch

A scalar or an array (<=2D) of CDF_TIME_TT2000 values.

Keywords

EPOCH

Set this keyword equal to one of the following values, specifying the epoch mode to use for output of the epoch string:

Value	Date Format
0	`DD-MM-YYYY hh:mm:ss.ccccccccc` (This is the default)
1	`YYYYMMDD.ttttttt`
2	`YYYYMMDDss`
3	`YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.ccccccccc` ( `T` is a CDF_EPOCH type 3 placeholder)

where:

Date Element	Represents
`DD`	the day of the month (1-31)
`MM`	the month number (1-12)
`YYYY`	the year (A.D.)
`hh`	the hour (0-23)
`mm`	the minute (0-59)
`ss`	the second (0-59)
`ccc`	the millisecond (0-999), microsecond (000-999) and nanosecond (000-999)
`ttttttt`	the fraction of the day (e.g. 2500000 is 6 am).
