Example
In the mapping illustrated below, the datetime-diff function subtracts the flight departure datetime 2001-12-17T09:30:02+05:00 from the arrival datetime 2001-12-17T19:30:02+05:00. Note that the arrival datetime is the greater value, so it is connected to the first input of the function.
The mapping output is the difference between the two (a period of 10 hours):
