A function named ‘string_convert’ is used in PHP that takes a date as a parameter. The ‘strtotime’
function is used to convert English text timing into a UNIX timestamp −
$sec = strtotime($my_date);
$my_date = date("Y-m-d H:i", $sec);
$my_date = $my_date . ":00";This date is printed on the screen. Outside the function, the date time is defined, and the function is
called on this parameter and the output is displayed on the screen −
echo $my_date;
