TU Node Js Program UNIX Epoch Time System & Operating Systems Programming Exercise

Assignment Description:

Unix time (also known as Epoch time, POSIX time, seconds since the Epoch, or UNIX Epoch time) is a system for describing a point in time. It is the number of seconds that have elapsed since the Unix epoch, minus leap seconds. The epoch is Unix time 0 (midnight 1/1/1970), but ‘epoch’ is often used as a synonym for Unix time.

Unix time is widely used in operating systems and file formats. A Unix time number can be represented in any form capable of representing numbers. In some applications the number is simply represented textually as a string of decimal digits.

To get the full mark of this bonus, write a node.js program to complete the following tasks:

• Read “dataset.csv” file to and print it in the console.
  • Note: A “dataset.csv” file entails users’ timestamps from website hits during the last ten years. It entails two fields: “siteID”, and “loginTimestamp”, and it carries 2306 row.
• Convert timestamps from “login_timestamp” field to human-readable format and write them in json format file.

Deliverables:

• Cover page.
• Source code file and output json format file.
• All files will be grouped in a zipped file named “Bonus_UniversityID”.

Snapshots of the output in the screen and your web browser console.
