Epoch2Date

Epoch2Date is a simple Bash script that converts an epoch timestamp into a human-readable date and time (UTC) without using the date command.

Features

• Supports both positive and negative epoch timestamps.
• Outputs the result in YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS UTC format.
• Displays the day of the week.
• Works entirely without date, performing all calculations manually.

Installation

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/BuriXon-code/Epoch2Date
cd Epoch2Date

Make the script executable:

chmod +x epochcalc

Usage

Run the script with an epoch timestamp as an argument:

./epochcalc 1710445200

Example output:

Monday 2024-03-14 12:00:00 UTC

For negative timestamps (dates before 1970):

./epochcalc -1742169546

Example output:

Sunday 1914-10-18 01:24:54 UTC

Notes

• If no argument is provided, the script should return an error message.
• Ensure you pass a valid numeric timestamp.
