Detailed Description

Generate and return the current or the requested date and time converted to the corresponding Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) as an integer-valued array of size 8.

The first four input arguments or the first four elements of the input vector values(:) are mandatory and must be provided since they determine the date and local time zone of interest.
The rest of the elements containing the time of the day of the Gregorian Calendar are optional and taken to be zero if not provided.

Parameters
[in]year: The input scalar of type integer of default kind IK, containing the year of the Gregorian calendar.
(optional, default = the current value if all input arguments are missing. It can be present if only if month, day, and zone are also present and values is missing.)
[in]month: The input scalar of type integer of default kind IK, containing the month of the year of the Gregorian calendar.
(optional, default = 1 (or the current value if all input arguments are missing). It must be present if year is also present.)
[in]day: The input scalar of type integer of default kind IK, containing the day of the month of the year of the Gregorian calendar.
(optional, default = 1. (or the current value if all input arguments are missing). It must be present if month is also present.)
[in]zone: The input scalar of type integer of default kind IK, containing the local time zone of the Gregorian calendar in minutes.
(optional, default = 0 (UTC) (or the current value if all input arguments are missing). It must be present if day is also present.)
[in]hour: The input scalar of type integer of default kind IK, containing the hour of the day of the Gregorian calendar.
(optional, default = 0 (or the current value if all input arguments are missing). It can be present only if zone is present.)
[in]minute: The input scalar of type integer of default kind IK, containing the minute of the hour of the day of the Gregorian calendar.
(optional, default = 0 (or the current value if all input arguments are missing). It can be present only if hour is present.)
[in]second: The input scalar of type integer of default kind IK, containing the second of the minute of the hour of the day of the Gregorian calendar.
(optional, default = 0 (or the current value if all input arguments are missing). It can be present only if minute is present.)
[in]millisecond: The input scalar of type integer of default kind IK, containing the millisecond of the second of the minute of the hour of the day of the Gregorian calendar.
(optional, default = 0 (or the current value if all input arguments are missing). It can be present only if second is present.)
[in]values: The input contiguous vector of minimum size 4 and maximum size 8 of type integer of default kind IK, containing the values [year, month, day, zone, hour, minute, seconds, milliseconds] of the Gregorian calendar or a subset of the octuple starting with year.
The order of the elements of the vector follows that of the values returned by the Fortran intrinsic date_and_time().
(optional, default = the current date and time. It can be present only if all other arguments are missing.)
Returns
DateTimeUTC(1:8) : The output vector of size 8 of type integer of default kind IK containing the requested UTC date and time of the Gregorian Calendar corresponding to the input local date and time in the order [year, month, day, zone, hour, minute, seconds, milliseconds]. By definition, DateTimeUTC(4) (corresponding to the UTC time zone) is always zero.


Possible calling interfaces

use pm_kind, only: SK, IK
integer(IK) :: DateTimeUTC(8)
integer(IK) :: DateTime(8)
DateTimeUTC(1:8) = getDateTimeUTC() ! return the current UTC date and time.
DateTimeUTC(1:8) = getDateTimeUTC(year, month, day, zone)
DateTimeUTC(1:8) = getDateTimeUTC(year, month, day, zone, hour)
DateTimeUTC(1:8) = getDateTimeUTC(year, month, day, zone, hour, minute)
DateTimeUTC(1:8) = getDateTimeUTC(year, month, day, zone, hour, minute, second)
DateTimeUTC(1:8) = getDateTimeUTC(year, month, day, zone, hour, minute, second, millisecond)
DateTimeUTC(1:8) = getDateTimeUTC(DateTime(1:8)) ! DateTime(1:8) = [year, month, day, zone, hour, minute, second, millisecond]
DateTimeUTC(1:8) = getDateTimeUTC(DateTime(1:7)) ! DateTime(1:7) = [year, month, day, zone, hour, minute, second]
DateTimeUTC(1:8) = getDateTimeUTC(DateTime(1:6)) ! DateTime(1:6) = [year, month, day, zone, hour, minute]
DateTimeUTC(1:8) = getDateTimeUTC(DateTime(1:5)) ! DateTime(1:5) = [year, month, day, zone, hour]
DateTimeUTC(1:8) = getDateTimeUTC(DateTime(1:4)) ! DateTime(1:4) = [year, month, day, zone]

Warning
An input argument year = 0 corresponds to the historic 1 BC notation of the Gregorian calendar.
This is in accordance with the convention in astronomical year numbering and the international standard date system, ISO 8601.
The input month must be a number between 1 and 12.
The input day must be a number between 1 and 31 and be consistent with the specified month and (leap) year.
The input zone must be a valid time zone in units of minutes.
The input hour must be a number between 0 and 23.
The input minute must be a number between 0 and 59.
The input second must be a number between 0 and 59.
The input millisecond must be a number between 0 and 999.
These conditions are verified only if the library is built with the preprocessor macro CHECK_ENABLED=1.
The pure procedure(s) documented herein become impure when the ParaMonte library is compiled with preprocessor macro CHECK_ENABLED=1.
By default, these procedures are pure in release build and impure in debug and testing builds.
Remarks
The procedures under this generic interface are always impure when all input arguments are missing.
