Actions With Dates

One way to calculate time is to add or remove the appropriate number of seconds to the time () timestamp. For example, in the case of time () + 60, 60 seconds or 1 minute are added, etc.

When you reach days, months, and years, the calculation may be a little more complicated, so the calculations could be done with the mktime() function. For example, 23 years before.

mktime(0, 0, 0, 04, 25, 1980-23)

It is also possible to use English sentences to calculate dates strtotime(), for example:

strtotime("now")
