You can simply increase the resolution by asking for the difference in seconds, and then calculate from there manually.tiago wrote:Well, the purpose is to have an accurate datediff method to rely on.
Tried some scripting on this but got stuck at a point, had come ideas, made notes and report back if I find a reasonable solution.
Code: Select all
// $reportModifiedDate2 = <date hh:nn:ss yyyy/mm/dd>; // this is the real thing, replaced for debug reasons
$reportModifiedDate1 = "13:58:58"; //
//time of script execution, emulated by wait()
//in case, YOUR SCRIPT GOES HERE.
// focus pi; //debug purposes only - remove for real usage.
// status "Plz wait 1 min - timer on, $reportModifiedDate1"; //debug purposes only - remove for real usage.
// wait(62000); //debug purposes only - remove for real usage.
// focus pi; //debug purposes only - remove for real usage.
//in case, YOUR SCRIPT ENDS HERE.
// $reportModifiedDate2 = <date hh:nn:ss yyyy/mm/dd>; // this is the real thing, replaced for debug reasons
$reportModifiedDate2 = "16:32:01"; // 15:02:01 , test hr // 14:02:01 , test min // 13:59:41 , test sec
$differenceOfDates = datediff($reportModifiedDate1, $reportModifiedDate2, s);

status "done.";A non-profit NGO needs to know how much time XY toke to perform a job? Anyway, seconds should be accurate enough, so where's the problem? Or do you want milliseconds?tiago wrote:I need to report among other stuff how much time XY toke to perform a job. Accurately, since currently I'm working for a non-profit NGO.
If I had a way to have gettoken being able to get tokens without separators, I guess I can easily solve the rounding up-or-down issue.
echo gettoken("Donald Duck", 4, ""); // returns "a"
echo gettoken("a,b,c,d,e", 4, ""); // returns ","
echo gettoken("a,b,c,d,e", 3, ""); // returns "b"
What is unprecise about "13601 seconds"?tiago wrote:No, on the opposite: sometimes an operation takes HOURS to run.
And yes, I agree that seconds should suffice. I'm just bothered by delivering them "13601 seconds" as an output.
Precision is everything.
