Although tmfactor supports serial date numbers,
datetime values are recommended instead. The
datetime data type provides flexible date and time
formats, storage out to nanosecond precision, and properties to account for time
zones and daylight saving time.
To convert serial date numbers or text to datetime values, use the datetime function. For example:
t = datetime(738427.656845093,"ConvertFrom","datenum");
y = year(t)
y =
2021
There are no plans to remove support for serial date number inputs.
