That function is +called inPeriod(). + +inPeriod() determines if a given time is within a given time period. +It will return 1 if it is, 0 if not, and -1 if either the time or the +period passed to it were malformed. The time is specified in non-leap +year seconds past January 1, 1970, as per the time() function. The period +is a string which is of the form described in Period's man page. |
