[ncl-talk] About local time (UTC+9)

[isakhar sakhar isakhar]

Dear Mr. Dave

I have modified the syntax to cd_string but I still face the error
'fatal:Undefined identifier: (cd_string) is undefined, can't continue'


time_numeric=cd_string(time,"%Y%N%D%H%M")  ;; will return in hours since
1800-01-01 unless specified otherwise
offset=-9    ; hours
time_numeric =time_numeric-offset

time=cd_string(time_numeric,"%Y%N%D%H%M")
