PHP date(): minutes without leading zeros

Question

I\'d like to know if there is a formatting letter for PHP\'s date() that allows me to print minutes without leading zeros, or whether I have to manuall

Answer 1

i just did this one line solution

$min = intval(date('i',strtotime($date)));

Using ltrim method may remove all the leading zeroes.For ex if '00' min.In this case this will remove all the zeroes and gives you empty result.
