dateToNumber: converts the date into a number. This block extracts a selected portion of the date and converts it to a number that represents that Year, Month, Day, etc.
As you can see in the example below, we show how to use the block to extract those three entities from the date. You could also get Hour, Minute, or Second if desired.
dateToString: converts a part of date into a string. This block extracts a selected portion of the date and converts it to the actual Month or Day of the week.
In the example below, we show how to use the block to extract those two entities from the date.
timeToMinutes: converts a time value to a number of minutes. In the example below, we have converted current time of 19:20 to 1160 minutes. Also, you will see that we took minutes and divided it by 60 to get the current hour of the day. That result is 19.33 hours, or 7:20pm (.33 hours is approximately 20 minutes).
