cdflib.epochBreakdown - Convert CDF_EPOCH value into time value

Syntax

Description

timeVec = cdflib.epochBreakdown(epochTime) decomposes the CDF_EPOCH value, epochTime value into individual time components. timeVec will have 7-by-n elements, where n is the number of CDF_EPOCH values in epochTime.

The return value timeVec has the following elements:

Examples

Convert a CDP_EPOCH value into a time vector.

% First convert a time vector into a CDF_EPOCH value
timeval = [1999 12 31 23 59 59 0];
epoch = cdflib.computeEpoch(timeval);

% Convert the CDF_EPOCH value into a time vector
timevec = cdflib.epochBreakdown(epoch)

timevec =

        1999
          12
          31
          23
          59
          59
           0
