I have two dates, formated like "Y-m-d H:i:s". I need to compare these two dates and figure out the hour difference.

Dates and times in Excel are stored as a date number, which is the number of days since 1 January 1900, with the value after the decimal point representing the time of day. To calculate the number of hours between two dates we can simply subtract the two values and multiply by 24.
PHP date_diff() Function $date2=date_create("2013-12-12"); $diff=date_diff($date1,$date2);
There are two ways to calculate the total time from the array. Using strtotime() function: The strtotime() function is used to convert string into the time format. This functions returns the time in h:m:s format.
You can convert them to timestamps and go from there:
$hourdiff = round((strtotime($time1) - strtotime($time2))/3600, 1); Dividing by 3600 because there are 3600 seconds in one hour and using round() to avoid having a lot of decimal places.
