fn.secondsFromTime

fn.secondsFromTime(
   arg as (Number|String)?
) as Number?

Summary

Returns an xs:decimal value between 0 and 60.999..., both inclusive, representing the seconds and fractional seconds in the localized value of $arg. Note that the value can be greater than 60 seconds to accommodate occasional leap seconds used to keep human time synchronized with the rotation of the planet.

If $arg is the empty sequence, returns the empty sequence.

Example

fn.secondsFromTime(xs.time("13:20:10.5"))
=> 10.5
