1970 matla 时间_如何在Matlab中使用Unix时间戳？

I have some data files with Unix timestamps (in this case, number of milliseconds since Jan 1, 1970 00:00 UTC). I would like to convert these to human-friendly date/time strings (e.g. 31-Aug-2012 11:36:24) in Matlab. Is there an easy way to do this in Matlab, or am I better off using an external library (e.g. java.text.SimpleDateFormat)?

How about

date = datestr(unix_time/86400 + datenum(1970,1,1))

if unix_time is given in seconds, unix_time/86400 will give the number of days since Jan. 1st 1970. Add to that the offset used by Matlab's datenum (datenum(0000,1,1) == 1), and you have the amount of days since Jan. 1st, 0000. This can be easily converted to human-readable form by Matlab's datestr.

If you have milliseconds, just use

date = datestr(unix_time/86400/1000 + datenum(1970,1,1))

Wrapped in functions, these would be

function dn = unixtime_to_datenum( unix_time )

dn = unix_time/86400 + 719529; %# == datenum(1970,1,1)

end

function dn = unixtime_in_ms_to_datenum( unix_time_ms )

dn = unix_time_ms/86400000 + 719529; %# == datenum(1970,1,1)

end

datestr( unixtime_to_datenum( unix_time ) )
