Syntax

M = minutes(X)

Description

example

M = minutes(X) returns an array of minutes equivalent to the values in X.

  • If X is a numeric array, then M is a duration array in units of minutes.

  • If X is a duration array, then M is a double array with each element equal to the number of minutes in the corresponding element of X.

The minutes function converts between duration and double values. To display a duration in units of minutes, set its Format property to 'm'.
