Units & Timestamp Implementation in Popular Languages
| Language / Environment | Resolution | Digit Count | Code to Get Current Time |
|---|---|---|---|
| JavaScript / TypeScript | Milliseconds | 13 digits | Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000) |
| Python | Seconds (float) | 10 digits | int(time.time()) |
| Go (Golang) | Seconds / Nanosec | 10 or 19 digits | time.Now().Unix() |
| Java | Milliseconds | 13 digits | System.currentTimeMillis() / 1000L |
| PostgreSQL | Seconds | 10 digits | EXTRACT(EPOCH FROM now()) |
How to Convert Timestamps Online
- Convert Epoch to Date: Paste your 10-digit (seconds) or 13-digit (milliseconds) timestamp into the input box, or click "Now" for the live clock. UTC, local timezone, and ISO 8601 strings update instantly.
- Convert Date to Epoch: Switch to the "Date to Epoch" tab, pick a calendar date and time, and copy the resulting epoch seconds or milliseconds.
- Batch Processing: Switch to "Batch Mode" to paste server access logs, database rows, or hundreds of timestamps at once for instant multi-line conversion.
