Syntax

localtime(
    ?int $timestamp = null,
    bool $associative = false
): array

Parameters

timestamp

The optional timestamp parameter is an int Unix timestamp that defaults to the current local time if timestamp is omitted or null. In other words, it defaults to the value of time().

associative

Determines whether the function should return a regular, numerically indexed array, or an associative one.

If associative is set to false or not supplied then the array is returned as a regular, numerically indexed array.

If associative is set to true then localtime() returns an associative array containing the elements of the structure returned by the C function call to localtime.
