Need to calculate a specific time from 16 minutes ago? Here's how to implement this calculation across different programming languages:
// PHP // Get time from 16 minutes ago $pastDate = date('Y-m-d H:i:s', strtotime('-16 minutes')); // Get time 16 minutes from now $futureDate = date('Y-m-d H:i:s', strtotime('+16 minutes')); // Using DateTime $date = new DateTime(); $date->modify('-16 minutes'); echo $date->format('Y-m-d H:i:s');
// JavaScript // Get time from 16 minutes ago const pastDate = new Date(Date.now() - 16 * 60000); // Get time 16 minutes from now const futureDate = new Date(Date.now() + 16 * 60000); // Using date methods const date = new Date(); date.setMinutes(date.getMinutes() - 16); console.log(date.toISOString());
# Python from datetime import datetime, timedelta # Get time from 16 minutes ago past_date = datetime.now() - timedelta(minutes=16) # Get time 16 minutes from now future_date = datetime.now() + timedelta(minutes=16) # Format the dates print(past_date.strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')) print(future_date.strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'))
