🦋 Quarters 🦋

Quarters are giving mixed energy: format wide/abbreviated are Q1–Q4, narrow is 1–4, and stand-alone has the Luri names. The abbreviated stand-alone is slightly different — yes, first one is the full name, then Q2, Q3, Q4. Don't @ me, that's literally the data. 💀

yMd — pattern y-MM-dd, aka the "just gimme the date, no time, no clock, no nonsense" one 🗓️

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 2008-02-05

-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = -10-09-15

Zero-padded month and day, and the negative year keeps its little minus sign — -10 ate and left no crumbs 💅

yQQQ — pattern y QQQ, quarter energy 🔥

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 2008 Q1
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 1995 Q4
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = -10 Q3

yQQQQ — pattern y QQQQ, also quarter energy, just a longer pattern name:

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 2008 Q1
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 1995 Q4
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = -10 Q3

and yeah — for this locale yQQQ and yQQQQ spit out the exact same strings in all three samples. iconic, no notes ✨

yw-count-other — pattern 'week' w 'of' Y, the week-of-the-year vibe check 📅

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = week 6 of 2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = week 51 of 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = week 37 of -10

the words week and of are literally part of the pattern (that's what the single quotes are doing), so they show up verbatim in the output 🫶

🦋 Miscellaneous 🦋

• Prefers 24 hour time? Yes — no am/pm shenanigans here, bestie 🙈
• Local first day of the week: 1 (Mon) — Monday is the main character 👑

⏰ Strftime Patterns ⏰

The classic strftime trio, localized for this locale. Slay.

%c (%a %b %e %H:%M:%S %Y) — date time format, the full meal:

-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = Sat سئپتامر 15 04:44:23 -10

yes the month names are in Persian script — فئڤریە, دئسامر, سئپتامر — and that's literally the locale data, so copy it exactly if you're writing tests, fr fr 😭

%x (%m/%d/%y) — date format, the short king:
