If you cannot figure out how to find and read and understand the documentation about the available date and time functions and don't have a clue what a UNIX timestamp might be, then you are not a programmer.

If you are not a programmer you should not be writing programs that deal with dangerous things like for example navigation systems for nuclear missiles or forex trading bots.
