Syntax

res = hours(x)
res = hours(d)

res = minutes(x)
res = minutes(d)

res = seconds(x)
res = seconds(d)

res = milliseconds(x)
res = milliseconds(d)

res = days(x)
res = days(d)

res = years(x)
res = years(d)

Arguments

x

real scalar or matrix representing a time unit

d

duration object

res

duration object or real matrix

Description

h = hours(d) creates a duration in hours of the same size as the input argument d.

If d is a duration, then hours(d) returns a matrix of reals.

It is the same for the other functions.

Examples

Duration in hours

h = hours(0:2:12)
val = hours(h)

Duration in minutes

mi = minutes(0:10)
val = minutes(mi)

Duration in seconds

sc = seconds(0:5:10)
val = seconds(sc)

Duration in milliseconds

milsec = milliseconds(0:100:500)
val = milliseconds(milsec)

Duration in days

d = days(1:7)
val = days(d)

d1 = duration(12, 30, 45)
d2 = hours(12) + minutes(30) + seconds(45);
d1 == d2

duration(1, 0, 0):minutes(15):duration(2, 0, 0)

// with datetime
datetime(2022, 1, 1):hours(1):datetime(2022, 1, 2)
