6. The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (30 December 2018) |
date
A string unique to a time duration of 24
hours between 2 successive midnights defined by the local time
zone. The specific representation of a date will depend on
which calendar convention is in force; e.g., Gregorian,
Islamic, Japanese, Chinese, Hebrew etc. as well as local
ordering conventions such as UK: day/month/year, US:
month/day/year.
Inputting and outputting dates on computers is greatly
complicated by these localisation issues which is why they
tend to operate on dates internally in some unified form such
as seconds past midnight at the start of the first of January
1970.
Many software and hardware representations of dates allow only
two digits for the year, leading to the year 2000 problem.
Unix manual page: date(1), ctime(3).

Date
the fruit of a species of palm (q.v.), the Phoenix dactilifera.
This was a common tree in Palestine (Joel 1:12; Neh. 8:15). Palm
branches were carried by the Jews on festive occasions, and
especially at the feast of Tabernacles (Lev. 23:40; Neh. 8:15).

8. Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856) |
DATE. The designation or indication in an instrument of writing, of the
time, and usually of the time and place, when and where it was made. When
the place is mentioned in the date of a deed, the law intends, unless the
contrary appears, that it was executed at the place of the date. Plowd. 7
b., 31 H. VI. This word is derived from the Latin datum, because when deeds
and agreements were written in that language, immediately before the day,
month and year in which they were made, was set down, it was usual to put
the word datum, given.
2. All writings ought to bear a date, and in some it is indispensable
in order to make them valid, as in policies of insurance; but the date in
these instruments is not inserted in the body of the writing because as each
subscription makes a separate contract, each underwriter sets down the day,
month and year he makes his subscription. Marsh. Ins. 336.
3. Deeds, and other writings, when the date is an impossible one, take
effect from the time of deliver; the presumption of law is, that the deed
was dated on the day it bears date, unless, as just mentioned, the time is
impossible; for example, the 32d day of January.
4. The proper way of dating, is to put the day, month, and year of our
Lord; the hour need not be mentioned, unless specially required; an instance
of which may be taken from the Pennsylvania Act of the 16th June, 1836,
sect. 40, which requires the sheriff, on receiving a writ of fieri facias,
or other writ of execution, to endorse thereon the day of the month, the
year, and the hour of the day whereon he received the same.
5. In public documents, it is usual to give not only the day, the
month, and the year of our Lord, but also the year of the United States,
when issued by authority of the general government; or of the commonwealth,
when issued under its authority. Vide, generally, Bac. Ab. Obligations, C;
Com. Dig, Fait, B 3; Cruise, Dig. tit, 32, c. 20, s. 1-6; 1 Burr. 60; 2 Rol.
Ab. 27, 1. 22; 13 Vin. Ab. 34; Dane's Ab. Index, h.t. See Almanac.
