When I use string->date in srfi/19, it defaults to my local time zone. I see from the documentation that one can use "~z" to denote the "time zone in RFC-822 style". A quick google of RFC-822 suggests "UT" is the correct abbreviation for UTC.
However Welcome to Racket v5.3.4. > (require srfi/19) > (string->date "22/05/13/UT" "~d/~m/~y/~z") string->date: TIME-ERROR type bad-date-format-string: "~d/~m/~y/~z" context...: /usr/lib/racket/collects/srfi/19/time.rkt:1532:0: tm:string->date /usr/lib/racket/collects/srfi/19/time.rkt:1569:0: string->date /usr/lib/racket/collects/racket/private/misc.rkt:87:7 So in short: how - given the day, month and year - can I construct a date object that's in UTC? ____________________ Racket Users list: http://lists.racket-lang.org/users
