[ date->AMPM ]
[Date->AMPM] is an accessor for getting or setting the AM/PM field for a date object.
Getting uses no parameters and returns the AM/PM as an integer.
Setting requires an integer parameter, and supports the =, += and -= operators. Setting modifies the date object in-place, but does not return a value.

To get or set the AM/PM field of a date object:
Use the [Date->AMPM] method. The following example uses a single date object, then gets the AM/PM and returns its value.
Next we set the AM/PM field to a new value using the = operator, then set it again by adding 1 to the AM/PM using the += operator, and set it once more by subtracting 1 from the AM/PM using the -= operator. We return the result for each set operation.
Code
local('d') = date('2011-02-01 08:00:00')
#d->ampm + '<br>'
#d->ampm=0
#d + '<br>'
#d->ampm+=1
#d + '<br>'
#d->ampm-=1
#dResult
