Summary

In this hour, you learned how to use time() to get a date stamp for the current date and time. You learned how to use getdate() to extract date information from a timestamp and date() to convert a timestamp into a formatted string. You also learned how to create a timestamp using mktime() and how to test a date for validity with checkdate(). You worked through an example script, which applies some of the tools you have looked at, and built a class library that automates some of the more tedious aspects of working with dates in forms.
