utctodtv#

Purpose#

Converts UTC scalar format to DTV vector format.

Format#

dtv = utctodtv(utc)#
Parameters:

utc (Nx1 vector) – UTC scalar format.

Returns:

dtv (Nx8 matrix) – DTV vector format.

Examples#

// Set 'tc' equal to the number of seconds since January 1,
// 1970
tc = timeutc;
print "tc = " tc;

dtv = utctodtv(tc);
print "dtv = " dtv;

produces:

tc = 1340315529
dtv = 2012 6 21 14 52 9 4 172

Remarks#

A UTC scalar gives the number of seconds since or before January 1, 1970 Greenwich Mean Time.

Each row of dtv, in DTV vector format, contains:
