## Return the date/time input as a serial day number, with Jan 1, 0000

##
## The integer part, @code{floor (@var{days})} counts the number of
## complete days in the date input.
##
## The fractional part, @code{rem (@var{days}, 1)} corresponds to the time
## on the given day.
##
## The input may be a date vector (@pxref{XREFdatevec,,@code{datevec}}),
## date string (@pxref{XREFdatestr,,@code{datestr}}), or directly specified
## as input.
##
## When processing input datestrings, @var{f} is the format string used to
## interpret date strings (@pxref{XREFdatestr,,@code{datestr}}).  If no
## format @var{f} is specified, then a relatively slow search is performed
## through various formats.  It is always preferable to specify the format
## string @var{f} if it is known.  Formats which do not specify a particular
## time component will have the value set to zero.  Formats which do not
## specify a date will default to January 1st of the current year.
##
## @var{p} is the year at the start of the century to which two-digit years
## will be referenced.  If not specified, it defaults to the current year
## minus 50.
##
## The optional output @var{secs} holds the time on the specified day with
## greater precision than @var{days}.
##
## Notes:
##
## @itemize
## @item
## Years can be negative and/or fractional.
##
## @item
## Months below 1 are considered to be January.
##
## @item
## Days of the month start at 1.
##
## @item
## Days beyond the end of the month go into subsequent months.
##
## @item
## Days before the beginning of the month go to the previous month.
##
## @item
## Days can be fractional.
## @end itemize

## @strong{Caution:} datenums represent a specific time for the Earth as a
## whole.  They do not take in to account time zones (shifts in time based
## on location), nor seasonal changes due to Daylight Savings Time (shifts in
## time based on local regulation).  Be aware that it is possible to create
## datenums that, when interpreted by a function which accounts for time zone
## and DST shifts such as @code{datestr}, are nonexistent or ambiguous.
##
## @strong{Caution:} this function does not attempt to handle Julian calendars
## so dates before October 15, 1582 are wrong by as much as eleven days.  Also,
## be aware that only Roman Catholic countries adopted the calendar in 1582.
## It took until 1924 for it to be adopted everywhere.  See the Wikipedia entry
## on the Gregorian calendar for more details.
##
## @strong{Warning:} leap seconds are ignored.  A table of leap seconds is
## available on the Wikipedia entry for leap seconds.
