osx - Create a timestamp given date values columns in Excel -
i have date in following format:
column a: day (number form) column b: month (number form) column c: year (yy number form, in case 15 , 16 2015 , 2016) column d: hour (number form, 0 through 23) column e: minute (number form)
how can convert timestamp (namely, timestamp representing number of minutes)? don't see kind of "dateserial" type function in excel (at least on mac version).
you can formula:
=date(2000+c1,b1,a1)+time(d1,e1,0)
this number around 42000, need format in number format want.
then if want time difference between 2 rows use:
=f2-f1
and format cell custom format of [hh]:mm:ss
note method excel stores date/time is:
dates whole numbers each day since jan 1st 1900 in 42000's.
time decimal based on 24 hours being 1.
so both current time 42531.63956
or 6/10/2015 3:21:33
or so, when mask applied.
excel uses method can math on values. method on how output displayed depends on format of cell in number resides.
