There is an extension for 6!:0
...The argument may be ... a string of the letters Y M D h m s and
other characters, producing a formatted string. For example:
6!:0 'YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss.sss'
2007-10-30 13:10:46.875
However, if there are earlier values of 6!:0 numeric vector,
how to get the same format?
If there is a piece of code that knows to do the formatting,
is it only available for current time?
Typically, time-reporting and time arithmentic routines
are separate from time formatting ones, which are in turn
bundled together with other formatting: numeric, currency,
compound messages (printf) -- often related to localization.
Whereas different formatting facilities are in different places
- 6!:0 current time
- 8!:x numeric format
- 9!:10 print precision
- 'dates' date and time utilities
- 'format' misc formatting, tables, clipboard
- 'printf' compound messages, numbers, hex, etc.
