| | | | | | proleptic Gregorian calendar: Encyclopedia II - ISO 8601 - General principles Dates and times are self-contained, and do not rely on any external context for their values. They are entirely numerical in representation, although certain specialized formats use roman letters to label fields. Every ISO date has exactly one possible unambiguous interpretation. These properties allow them to be truly international, without reliance on regional conventions, such as the names of the days of the week.
Dates and times are organized from most to least significant digits. Each value (eg, year, month, day, ti ...

| | | | | proleptic Gregorian calendar: Encyclopedia II - ISO 8601 - Times ISO 8601 uses the 24-hour clock system that is used by much of the world. The basic format is hhmmss and the extended format is hh:mm:ss. hh refers to an hour between 00 and 24, where 24 is only used to notate the midnight at the end of a calendar date. mm refers to a minute between 00 and 59. ss refers to a second between 00 and 59 (or 60 in the exceptional case of an added leap second). So a time might appear as 13:47:30, or 134730.
It is also acceptable to omit elements to reduce precision. hh:mm, hhm ...

| | | | | | proleptic Gregorian calendar: Encyclopedia II - Hindu calendar - History The Hindu Calendar descends from the Vedic times. There are many references to calendrics in the Vedas. The Vedānga (adjunct to Veda) called Jyautisha (literally, "celestial body study") prescribed all the aspects of the Hindu calendars. After the Vedic period, there were many scholars such as Āryabhata (5th century), Varāhamihira (6th century) and Bhāskara (12th century) who were experts in Jyautisha and contributed to the development of the Hindu Calendar.
The most widely used authoritative text for the Hindu Calendars in the Sūrya Siddhānta, a text of uncertain ...

| | | | | | proleptic Gregorian calendar: Encyclopedia II - Common Era - Origins According to Peter Daniels (a Cornell University and University of Chicago trained linguist):
CE and BCE came into use in the last few decades, perhaps originally in Ancient Near Eastern studies, where (a) there are many Jewish scholars and (b) dating according to a Christian era is irrelevant. It is indeed a question of sensitivity.
However, the term "common era" has earlier antecedents. A 1716 book by English Bishop John Prideaux says, "The vulgar era, by which we now compute the years from his incarnation." In 1835, in his b ...
