Formatting
----------

[](#formatting)

For help in building your formats, checkout the [PHP strftime() docs](http://php.net/manual/en/function.strftime.php).

Notes
-----

[](#notes)

The class relies on `strtotime()` to make sense of your strings, and `strftime()` to make the format changes. Just always check the `time()` output to see if you get false timestamps... which means the class couldn't understand what you were telling it.
