Date and Time CIP 2015-08-06 Temporal Instant Types Date and Time CIP 2015-08-06 Temporal instant types ● DateTime ○ with timezone (logical zone or absolute offset from UTC) ● LocalDateTime ○ without timezone ● Date ○ without timezone ● Time ○ with absolute offset from UTC (logical zones needs date to map to offset) ● LocalTime ○ without timezone Duration type ● Represents a number of ○ years ○ months ○ days ○ hours ○ minutes ○ seconds (and fractional seconds) ● years and months (and quarters) convertible ● (days and weeks convertible) ● hours, minutes, and seconds convertible ● No conversion between the three groups above! Syntax No new syntax is introduced. All handling of temporal values is done through functions: ● datetime(...) ● localdatetime(...) ● date(...) ● time(...) ● localtime(...) ● {datetime,localdatetime,date,time,localtime}.truncate(...) ● {datetime,localdatetime,date,time,localtime}.{statement,transaction,realtime}(...) ● duration(...) ● duration.between(...), duration.inMonths(...), duration.inDays(...), duration.inSeconds(...) Ways of creating temporal instants ● Parsing from ISO 8601 string ● Creating from components ● Getting the current instant ○ using different clocks: statement, transaction, realtime (one of them being default) ● Adding a Duration to an instant ● Converting from other instants Ways of creating Duration ● Parsing from ISO 8601 string ● Creating from components ● Compute difference between instants Parsing Temporal Instant from ISO 8601 string ● datetime($string), localdatetime($string), date($string), time($string), localtime($string) ● date: YYYY-MM-DD, or YYYY-Www-D, or YYYY-Qq-DD, or YYYY-DDD (calendar date, week date, quarter date, ordinal date respectively) ○ dashes can be omitted, smaller units can be omitted ○ year with a sign prefix can be arbitrarily long, but then dashes may not be omitted ● time: HH:MM:SS.sss ○ colons can be omitted, smaller units can be omitted ● offset: ±HH:MM or Z ○ colons can be omitted, smaller units can be omitted ● zone: [name] Parsing Temporal Instant from ISO 8601 string ● datetime($string) ○ <date>T<time><offset><zone> ○ either offset, or zone, or both ○ smaller units may be omitted ● localdatetime($string) ○ <date>T<time> ○ smaller units may be omitted ● date($string) ○ <date> ● time($string) ○ <time><offset> ● localtime($string) ○ <time> Creating Temporal Instant from components ● datetime({...}), localdatetime({...}), date({...}), time({...}), localtime({...}) ○ Date based: ■ year ■ quarter ■ month ■ week ■ weekYear ■ day ■ ordinalDay ■ weekDay ○ Time based: ■ hour ■ minute ■ second ■ millisecond ■ microsecond ■ nanosecond ○ Other: ■ timezone - the named timezone or offset if no name (supported by zoned types) ■ offset - as a formatted offset string (supported by zoned types) ■ offsetMinutes (supported by zoned types) ■ epochMillis (only supported by DateTime) ■ epochSeconds (only supported by DateTime) ■ epochNanosOfSecond (only supported by DateTime) Getting the current Temporal Instant ● datetime(), localdatetime(), date(), time(), localtime() The above uses the (implementation specific) default clock, which is one of the below: Same point in time every invocation in the query: ● datetime.statement(), localtime.statement(), et.c... ● datetime.statement($timezone), et.c... Same point in time every invocation in the transaction: ● datetime.transaction(), localtime.transaction(), et.c... ● datetime.transaction($timezone), et.c… Actual time at invocation: ● datetime.realtime(), localtime.realtime(), et.c... ● datetime.realtime($timezone), et.c... Converting Temporal Instants between types ● datetime({...}), localdatetime({...}), date({...}), time({...}), localtime({...}) ● date - selects the date from a Date, or DateTime, or LocalDateTime ● time - selects the time from a Time, LocalTime, DateTime, LocalDateTime ● datetime - selects both the date and time from a DateTime or LocalDateTime Examples: ● datetime({datetime:$aDateTimeOrLocalDateTime, timezone:"..."}) ● datetime({date:$aDateOrDateTimeOrLocalDateTime, time:$anotherDateOrDateTimeOrLocalDateTime}) ● datetime({datetime:...}), datetime({date:..., time:...}) datetime({datetime:..., timezone:...}), datetime({date:..., time:..., timezone:...}) ● localdatetime({datetime:...}), localdatetime({date:..., time:...}) ● time({time:...}), time({time:..., timezone:...}) ● date({date:...}) ● localtime({time:...}) Parsing Duration from ISO 8601 string ● duration($string) ● unit based format: PnYnQnMnWnDTnHnMnS ○ zero valued component can be omitted ○ T must precede time-based section (Hours and smaller) ○ Smallest component may be fractional ○ Examples: P15M, P1DT3H, PT48H, P1.5W ● date-and-time based format: P<date>T<time> ○ smaller units may be omitted Creating Duration from Components ● duration({...}) ○ years ○ quarters ○ months ○ weeks ○ days ○ hours ○ minutes ○ seconds ○ milliseconds ○ microseconds ○ nanoseconds Compute Duration as difference between Instants Computing the duration from instant a to instant b: ● duration.between(a, b) ○ uses natural units ● duration.inSeconds(a, b) ○ uses hours, minutes, seconds ● duration.inDays(a, b) ○ uses days ● duration.inMonths(a, b) ○ uses months and years Adding a Duration to a Temporal Instant Example: date("1984-10-11") + duration("P33Y5M3D") Note that this is not associative: ● (date("2011-01-31") + duration("P1M")) + duration("P12M") ○ date({year:2012, month:2, day:28}) ● date("2011-01-31") + (duration("P1M") + duration("P12M")) ○ date({year:2012, month:2, day:29}) Truncating a Temporal Instant datetime.truncate($unit, $instant) localdatetime.truncate($unit, $instant) date.truncate($unit, $instant) time.truncate($unit, $instant) localtime.truncate($unit, $instant) Supported units: ● millennium ● century ● decade ● year ● weekYear - the first day of the first week of the week year of the specified instant (may be in december of previous year) ● quarter ● month ● week ● day ● hour ● minute ● second ● millisecond ● microsecond Comparing and ORDER BY ● Temporal Instants comparable to other instants of same type ● ORDER BY uses comparison order for Temporal Instants ● ORDER BY groups by type when ordering by field with mixed types ● Duration values are NOT comparable ○ because different months are of different lengths, and not all days are equally long ● ORDER BY for Duration based on average length of days and months Ordering durations - is the order consistent?

It is used (often alongside the Gregorian calendar) to date events in many Muslim countries. It is also used by Muslims to determine the proper days of Islamic holidays and rituals, such as the annual period of fasting and the proper time for the pilgrimage to Mecca. The Islamic calendar employs the Hijri era whose epoch was Islamic Calendar stamp issued at King retrospectively established as the Islamic New Year of AD 622.

  • Alexander Jones Calendrica I: New Callippic Dates
    ALEXANDER JONES CALENDRICA I: NEW CALLIPPIC DATES aus: Zeitschrift für Papyrologie und Epigraphik 129 (2000) 141–158 © Dr. Rudolf Habelt GmbH, Bonn 141 CALENDRICA I: NEW CALLIPPIC DATES 1. Introduction. Callippic dates are familiar to students of Greek chronology, even though up to the present they have been known to occur only in a single source, Ptolemy’s Almagest (c. A.D. 150).1 Ptolemy’s Callippic dates appear in the context of discussions of astronomical observations ranging from the early third century B.C. to the third quarter of the second century B.C. In the present article I will present new attestations of Callippic dates which extend the period of the known use of this system by almost two centuries, into the middle of the first century A.D. I also take the opportunity to attempt a fresh examination of what we can deduce about the Callippic calendar and its history, a topic that has lately been the subject of quite divergent treatments. The distinguishing mark of a Callippic date is the specification of the year by a numbered “period according to Callippus” and a year number within that period. Each Callippic period comprised 76 years, and year 1 of Callippic Period 1 began about midsummer of 330 B.C. It is an obvious, and very reasonable, supposition that this convention for counting years was instituted by Callippus, the fourth- century astronomer whose revisions of Eudoxus’ planetary theory are mentioned by Aristotle in Metaphysics Λ 1073b32–38, and who also is prominent among the authorities cited in astronomical weather calendars (parapegmata).2 The point of the cycles is that 76 years contain exactly four so-called Metonic cycles of 19 years.

  • Some False Beliefs Concerning the End Times
    Some False Beliefs Concerning the End Times It has been said: “Wherever God builds a church, the devil sets up a chapel next door.” In other words, whenever God’s saving truth is proclaimed, the devil will follow close behind to spin false teachings that are intended to rob people of their salvation. This certainly has been true with the Bible’s teaching of the end times. Many Christian teachers claim that there will be a semi-utopian thousand-year period of prosperity and blessing on earth immediately after the New Testament era and immediately prior to the final judgment. This thousand-year period is called the millennium (from the Latin language in which mille means “thousand” and annus means “year”). The following time line shows how the millennialists view the end times. Compare this with the scriptural time line below it. Millennialism: Scripture: The thousand years The idea of a millennium comes from Revelation chapter 20. It is important to note that this is the only passage in the entire Bible which mentions a thousand-year period. Revelation 20:1-3,7-12: I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key to the Abyss and holding in His hand a great chain. He seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil, or Satan, and bound him for a thousand years. He threw him into the Abyss, and locked and sealed it over him, to keep him from deceiving the nations anymore until the thousand years were ended. When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his prison and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corners of the earth—Gog and Magog—to gather them for battle.
