I'm curious what will be the output of this code? I can't understand what the time() is for, is that indication for the system time?
I edited the code sorry. This is the REAL code
$testnum = 4053000
$timetest = trim($testnum)
$rawnum = time() - ($timetest * 60);
$diffdate = date('d/m/Y H:i:s', $rawnum);
Thank you in advance!
The time() function returns the current time in the number of seconds since the Unix Epoch (January 1 1970 00:00:00 GMT). So what you see is an integer in seconds.
You define your timezone in the PHP.ini

I am trying to convert a given date and time in format ( yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss ) to (yyyymmddThhmmssZ) in php. For example: 2020-07-30 18:30:00 should be 20200730T183000Z. I also want to know if there are any existing/in-built methods to accomplish this?
As others have said in your comments, you can simply do this with the DateTime object
Here's an example:
$date = '2020-07-21 18:50:32';
$obj = new \DateTime('#' . strtotime($date));
echo $obj->format(DATE_RFC3339); // 2020-07-22T01:50:32+00:00
If RFC3339 isn't your preferred format, feel free to pick one from the manual, or build your own

Say:
The start day is January 5 and the end is January 10 and the current date is January 7. I want to output the remaining days which is 3.
I think the easiest method is like this.
$date1 = new DateTime("2015-01-01");
$date2 = new DateTime("2010-02-05");
$diff = $date2->diff($date1)->format("%a");

Which is the best way to store data which come from the entire world?
I was thinking, for instance, to store the time() without timezone and then convert it every time.
Could be right? Is there a method to detect timezone of a request?
For that you can save a Unix Timestamp in your database.
http://php.net/manual/en/function.time.php
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/datetime.html
Returns the current time measured in the number of seconds since the Unix Epoch (January 1 1970 00:00:00 GMT).
So every people have the same timestamp format without a timezone.
Otherwise you have to store a Datetime field and the Timezone and calculate the correct value.

I need to get my country's current date. Currently my project is getting the user's date.
Here are my questions:
how to get my country's current date?
If I'm running my php site in my localhost (wampp), will I still get my country's current date? (I have an internet connection by the way).
PHP fetches time info from the server (your local system in this case). Then, with date_default_timezone_set() you can set any time zone you need.
Please, try this simple code and see what happens:
America/Montreal:<br>
<?php
date_default_timezone_set("America/Montreal");
echo date("Y/m/d H:i:s", time());
?>
<br>
Asia/Aden: <br>
<?php
date_default_timezone_set("Asia/Aden");
echo date("Y/m/d H:i:s", time());
