Function: integer DateTime2Unix(integer year,integer month,integer day,integer hour,integer minute,integer second);
Returns an integer comprising the date in number of seconds elapsed since 00:00 hours, Jan 1, 1970 UTC.
• integer | year | – | range from 1970 to 2038 | |
• integer | month | – | range from 1 to 12 | |
• integer | day | – | range from 1 to 31 | |
• integer | hour | – | range from 0 to 23 | |
• integer | minute | – | range from 0 to 59 | |
• integer | second | – | range from 0 to 59 |
