Description
This function returns a whole number of days, according to the following rules:
- If the string parameter represents a legal lexical xsd:date or xsd:dateTime, the return value is equal to the number of days difference between the specified date or dateTime (normalized to UTC) and 1970-01-01.
Hour, minute, and second components are ignored after normalization. Any other input parameter causes a return value of NaN.
