Turning given date to epoch

i can probably script this in bash, but, i was wondering, does anyone know of a simple way to translate a given time to epoch?

Code:
date -d@"29/Oct/2013:17:53:11"

the user would specify the date: 29/Oct/2013:17:53:11

and the script will simply interpret that to epoch: 1348838383 (this is just an example)

fann_train_epoch - Train one epoch with a set of training data

SYNOPSIS
float fann_train_epoch (resource $ann, resource $data) DESCRIPTION
Train one epoch with the training data stored in data. One epoch is where all of the training data is considered exactly once. This function returns the MSE error as it is calculated either before or during the actual training. This is not the actual MSE after the training epoch, but since calculating this will require to go through the entire training set once more. It is more than adequate to use this value during training. The training algorithm used by this function is chosen by fann_set_training_algorithm(3) function. PARAMETERS
o $ann -Neural network resource. o $data -Neural network training data resource. RETURN VALUES
The MSE, or FALSE on error. SEE ALSO
fann_train_on_data(3), fann_test_data(3), fann_get_MSE(3), fann_set_training_algorithm(3). PHP Documentation Group FANN_TRAIN_EPOCH(3)
