NAME
       plbtime - Calculate broken-down time from continuous time for the current stream


SYNOPSIS
       plbtime(year, month, day, hour, min, sec, ctime)


DESCRIPTION
       Calculate  broken-down  time;   year,  month,  day,  hour,  min, sec; from continuous time, ctime for the
       current stream.  This function is the inverse of plctime(3plplot).

       The PLplot definition of broken-down time is a calendar  time  that  completely  ignores  all  time  zone
       offsets,  i.e.,  it  is the user's responsibility to apply those offsets (if so desired) before using the
       PLplot time API.  By default broken-down time is defined using the proleptic Gregorian  calendar  without
       the  insertion  of  leap  seconds  and continuous time is defined as the number of seconds since the Unix
       epoch of 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z.  However,  other  definitions  of  broken-down  and  continuous  time  are
       possible, see plconfigtime(3plplot).

       Redacted form:  General: plbtime(year, month, day, hour, min, sec, ctime) Perl/PDL: Not available?

       This function is used in example 29.

       ctime (PLFLT, input)
              Continous time from which the broken-down time is calculated.
