TCA. Split Timestamp into Parts

MiniRobotLanguage (MRL)

TCA.Split - Command

Split Timestamp into its Components

Intention

Using TCA.Split you can easily split a Timestamp in all Components:

HH:MM:SS.ddd

Hereby the

- HH is Hours (0 to 99 - not limited to 12 or 24)

- MM is the Minutes limited 59

- SS is the Seconds limited 59

- ddd is the Milliseconds limited to 999

The Format of the Milliseconds is internally rounded to 3 places by prefixing zeroes.

If you specify 00:00:23 this will be treated as 00:00:00.023

If you specify 00:00:00.023 this will be treated as 00:00:00.023
