Get the local time

localtime ([ int $timestamp = time() [, bool $is_associative = FALSE ]] ) : array

timestamp

The optional timestamp parameter is an integer Unix timestamp that defaults to the current local time if a timestamp is not given. In other words, it defaults to the value of time().

is_associative

If set to FALSE or not supplied then the array is returned as a regular, numerically indexed array. If the argument is set to TRUE then localtime() returns an associative array containing all the different elements of the structure returned by the C function call to localtime. The names of the different keys of the associative array are as follows:

"tm_sec"	seconds, 0 to 59
"tm_min"	minutes, 0 to 59
"tm_hour"	hours, 0 to 23
"tm_mday"	day of the month, 1 to 31
"tm_mon"	month of the year, 0 (Jan) to 11 (Dec)
"tm_year"	years since 1900
"tm_wday"	day of the week, 0 (Sun) to 6 (Sat)
"tm_yday"	day of the year, 0 to 365
"tm_isdst"	is daylight savings time in effect? Positive if yes, 0 if not, negative if unknown.
