Hello!
Why are the current date() alternatives not working for you?
- is_date() => checkdate(int $month, int $day, int $year) or
DateTime::createFromFormat('Y-m-d', $date) !== false;
- year() => date('Y');
- month() => date('m');
- day() => date('d');
- hour() => date('H');
- minute() => date('i');
- second() => date('s');
- week() => date('W');
I can agree with you that the current ways are a bit confusing for a
beginner. For example, I myself didn't know the representation of weeks
using date() -- I had to search. But I think creating new "root functions"
would be too much. Perhaps a package like Carbon could be very useful. Or
even the DateTime itself.
Atenciosamente,
David Rodrigues
