Calculate number of hours between 2 dates in PHP
How can I get the number of hours of difference between two dates in PHP? I need to get an integer since I want to know if is bigger or smaller than a particular value.

Try:
$date1 = "2012-11-05 12:35:00";
$date2 = "2012-11-07 14:35:00";
$diff = strtotime($date2) - strtotime($date1);
$diff_in_hrs = $diff/3600;
print_r($diff_in_hrs);
Manual
Demo

If you have an up-to-date PHP
$dateOne = new DateTime('2012-01-20 00:00:00');
$dateTwo = new DateTime('2012-01-21 02:00:00');
// Procedurally
$interval = date_diff($dateOne, $dateTwo);
// Alternatively OOP style if supported
$interval = $dateOne->diff($dateTwo);
See: http://www.php.net/manual/en/class.dateinterval.php

<?php
$time1 = time();
$time2 = mktime(0,0,0,11,13,2012); // earlier today
echo ($time1 - $time2) / 3600; // 3600 seconds in hour
?>

PHP Get last increment of five minutes [duplicate]

Subtract time in PHP

I am looking to get the previous increment of five minutes from the current time...
Lets say that the current time is 12:07pm UTC
I want to put into a variable 12:05pm UTC
What would be an easy way of going about this?
You can do this with the DateTime class (https://3v4l.org/7aqMH):
<?php
$date = new DateTime('12:07 UTC');
$minutes = (int) $date->format('i');
$rounded = round($minutes / 5) * 5;
$date->setTime($date->format('H'), $rounded, $date->format('s'));
or more concisely:
<?php
$date = new DateTime('12:07 UTC');
$date->setTime(
$date->format('H'),
round($date->format('i') / 5) * 5,
$date->format('s')
);
There's nothing built in that allows you to retrieve 'increments' however you can calculate it with minimal code. The use of modulo here allows you to figure out how far past the most recent 5 minute mark is. It will never be greater than 5 minutes (300 seconds) and can always be subtracted safely to take you back to the time you want.
$now = time();
echo $now . PHP_EOL;
$five_minutes = 60*5; // 300
$offset = $now % $five_minutes;
$five_block = $now - $offset;
echo date('Y-m-d H:i:s', $five_block);
First you will want to extract the minutes from their stored variable. Then mathematically this is simple by applying division and the floor function. To do this you can first divide by five using intdiv(numerator, denominator) which will remove any trailing decimal points and then multiply by five again to get your desired value at an increment of five.
Get the current time using time() :
$min = 300
$currentTime = time();
$mod = $currentTime % $min;
$res = $currentTime - $mod;
finalResult = date('Y-m-d H:i:s', $res);

For example:
$date1='2017-12-13 13:06:21.602';
$date2='2017-12-13 13:06:18.102';
$diff=$date1-$date2
echo $diff;
output should be 3.5
Use The DateInterval class
Note: This solution works since PHP 7.1.0 when was added parameter f.
// your code goes here
$date1 = new DateTime('2017-12-13 13:06:21.602');
$date2 = new DateTime('2017-12-13 13:06:18.102');
$interval = $date1->diff($date2);
echo $interval->s+$interval->f;
// s = seconds, f = microseconds, as a fraction of a second
//var_dump($interval);
The result is 3.5

For PHP version comparison since 4.3.0: https://3v4l.org/VCI6P
Here is a solution 5.2.2 < php version < 7.1
<?php
$date1=\DateTime::createFromFormat('Y-m-d H:i:s.u','2017-12-13 13:06:21.602');
$date2=\DateTime::createFromFormat('Y-m-d H:i:s.u','2017-12-13 13:06:18.102');
// $di = $date1->diff($date2);
// var_dump( $di );
// seconds
$diffSeconds = $date1->getTimestamp() - $date2->getTimestamp();
// milli
$diffMilli = ($date1->format('u') - $date2->format('u')) / 1000000;
//result :
$diffWithMilli = $diffSeconds + $diffMilli;
var_dump($diffWithMilli);

Converting string to Date and DateTime

I get the string data from the database
The data format like:
07:00:00.0000000
It means 7:00 am.
How can i convert this string into Date type for comparison.
Therefore, I can get 2 data. Such as
Start:
07:00:00.0000000
End:
16:30:00.0000000
After the time comparison, i can got a answer like 9.3.
You can use strtotime :
$start = strtotime("07:00:00.0000000");
$end = strtotime("16:30:00.0000000");
$difference = $end - $start;
Or with DataTime object :
$start = new DateTime("07:00:00.0000000");
$end = new DateTime("16:30:00.0000000");
$interval = $start->diff($end);
$difference = $end->getTimestamp() - $start->getTimestamp();
Then echo the result :
echo $difference; // in seconds
echo $difference / 60; // in minutes
echo $difference / 3600; // in hours
echo $interval->format('%s') // in seconds
It's then up to your preference. I also suggest you to have a look at this post regarding the performances of the two solutions.

I have two dates
$departure_Dtae=2012-07-25T07:30:00
$arrival_date =2012-07-25T10:25:00
T means Time i.e. in 2012-07-25T10:25:00 date is 2012-07-25 and the time is 10:25:00 (hr: mts: s)
I need to find out the total hrs between these two times
I.e. in this case the total hour is 2 hr and 55 minutes
But I don't know how I calculate this in PHP
Does anyone know this?
If using PHP Version 5.3+ then you can use DateTime::diff():
<?php
function getDiff($strStart, $strEnd) {
$start = DateTime::createFromFormat("Y-m-d G:i:s", $strStart);
$end = DateTime::createFromFormat("Y-m-d G:i:s", $strEnd);
return $start->diff($end)->format('%hhrs %imins and %sseconds ');
}
var_dump(getDiff('2012-07-25 07:30:00', '2012-07-25 10:25:00'));
its simple
$departure_Dtae="2012-07-25T07:30:00";
$arrival_date ="2012-07-25T10:25:00";
$departure_Dtae= str_replace("T", " ", $departure_Dtae);
$arrival_date= str_replace("T", " ", $arrival_date);
$diff= (strtotime($arrival_date)-strtotime($departure_Dtae));
echo date("h",$diff);
Try this :
$end_time = "2008-09-05 20:59:13";
$start_time = "2008-09-05 19:00:16";
$end = date("h:i:s",strtotime($end_time));
$start = date("h:i:s",strtotime($start_time));
$diff = strtotime($end) - strtotime($start);
//convert to min and sec
$convert_min = $diff/60;
$convert_sec = $diff % 60;//seconds
//convert to hours and min
$convert_hr = floor($convert_min/60);//hours
$remainder = floor($convert_min % 60);//minutes
$total_visit = $convert_hr.":".$remainder;
You can use the DateTime object in php, which has loads of methods for manipulating dates.
DateTime::createFromFormat http://www.php.net/manual/en/datetime.createfromformat.php and DateTime::diff http://www.php.net/manual/en/datetime.diff.php would be the functions you would need to perform this task.
$date1 = DateTime::createFromFormat('j-M-Y H:i', '15-Feb-2009 12:45');
$date2 = DateTime::createFromFormat('j-M-Y H:i', '15-Feb-2009 13:45');
$interval = $date1->diff($date2);
echo $interval->format('H:i');
strtotime(date($arrival_date)) - strtotime(date($departure_date));
Will give you the time diff in secounds, then you can manipulate that as you wish.

I have two Unix timestamps, how can I calculate the total number of days between them?
$timestamp1 = x;
$timestamp2 = y;
$days_elapsed = floor(($timestamp2 - $timestamp1)/86400);
echo $days_elapsed;
Convert them to UNIX-timestamp (if they arent already), then just
$diff = abs($timestamp1 - $timestamp2);
$days = (int) ($diff / 60 / 60 / 24);
something like this should do the trick:
$days = (strtotime($timestamp1)-strtotime($timestamp2))/(60*60*24);
This code should do the trick
$numDays = abs($timeOne - $timeTwo)/60/60/24;
