ISO 8601 - Combined Date and Time Representations

Combined Date and Time Representations

T

A single point in time can be represented by concatenating: a complete date expression, the letter T as a delimiter, and a valid time expression. For example "2007-04-05T14:30".

Either basic or extended formats may be used, but both date and time must use the same format. The date expression may be calendar, week, or ordinal, and must use a complete representation. The time expression may use reduced accuracy. It is permitted to omit the 'T' character by mutual agreement.

Famous quotes containing the words combined, date and/or time:

    “A taste for drink, combined with gout,
    Had doubled him up forever.”
    —Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)

    “Until I was twenty-five, I had no development at all. From my twenty-fifth year I date my life. Three weeks have scarcely passed, at any time between then and now, that I have not unfolded within myself. But I feel that I am now come to the inmost leaf of the bulb, and that shortly the flower must fall to the mould.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    “The conqueror at least; who, ere Time renders
    His last award, will have the long grass grow
    Above his burnt-out brain and sapless cinders.
    If I might augur, I should rate but low
    Their chances: they are too numerous, like the thirty
    Mock tyrants, when Rome’s annals wax’d but dirty.”
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
