seconds between 08h 27m 30s on 18 february 2004, and 19h 35m 09s on 13 August
2008.

The input from etime is the output of the clock() function. Type

help etime

help clock

for more information.

I hope I don't spoil some exercise of you, but your code would be

t1 = [2004, 2, 18, 8, 27, 30]; % 08h 27m 30s on 18 february 2004

t2 = [2008, 8, 13, 19, 35, 09]; % 19h 35m 09s on 13 August 2008

etime (t2, t1)
