localtime - Get the local time

SYNOPSIS
       array localtime ([int  $timestamp = time()], [bool  $is_associative = false])

DESCRIPTION
	The localtime(3) function returns an array identical to that of the structure returned by the C function call.

PARAMETERS
	      o $timestamp
		-  The	optional  $timestamp parameter is an integer Unix timestamp that defaults to the current local time if a $timestamp is not
		given. In other words, it defaults to the value of time(3).

	      o $is_associative
		- If set to FALSE or not supplied then the array is returned as a regular, numerically indexed array. If the argument  is  set	to
		TRUE then localtime(3) returns an associative array containing all the different elements of the structure returned by the C func-
		tion call to localtime. The names of the different keys of the associative array are as follows:

		     o "tm_sec" - seconds,
		       0 to 59

		     o "tm_min" - minutes,
		       0 to 59

		     o "tm_hour" - hours,
		       0 to 23

		     o "tm_mday" - day of the month,
		       1 to 31

		     o "tm_mon" - month of the year,
		       0 (Jan) to 11 (Dec)

		     o "tm_year" - years since 1900

		     o "tm_wday" - day of the week,
		       0 (Sun) to 6 (Sat)

		     o "tm_yday" - day of the year,
		       0 to 365

		     o "tm_isdst" - is daylight savings time in effect?  Positive if yes,
		       0 if not, negative if unknown.

ERRORS
/EXCEPTIONS
	Every call to a date/time function will generate a E_NOTICE if the time zone is not valid, and/or a E_STRICT or E_WARNING message if using
       the system settings or the $TZ environment variable. See also date_default_timezone_set(3)

EXAMPLES
       Example #1

	      localtime(3) example

	      <?php
	      $localtime = localtime();
	      $localtime_assoc = localtime(time(), true);
	      print_r($localtime);
	      print_r($localtime_assoc);
	      ?>

	      The above example will output something similar to:

	      Array
	      (
		  [0] => 24
		  [1] => 3
		  [2] => 19
		  [3] => 3
		  [4] => 3
		  [5] => 105
		  [6] => 0
		  [7] => 92
		  [8] => 1
	      )

	      Array
	      (
		  [tm_sec] => 24
		  [tm_min] => 3
		  [tm_hour] => 19
		  [tm_mday] => 3
		  [tm_mon] => 3
		  [tm_year] => 105
		  [tm_wday] => 0
		  [tm_yday] => 92
		  [tm_isdst] => 1
	      )
