Description¶

Consider this code:

DateTime::createFromFormat('Y-m-d', '2022-02-11'). What value will be returned? ‘2022-02-11 00:00:00.0’? No, actual return

value has ‘H:i:s’ section like ‘2022-02-11 16:55:37.0’.

Change ‘Y-m-d’ to ‘!Y-m-d’, return value will be ‘2022-02-11 00:00:00.0’. So, adding ! to format string will make return value more intuitive.
