Bug in function now()

[weixing1531]

There is a bug in the file "mod_datetime.f90".
type(datetime) function now()
...
now % tz = hour+minute*m2h
Codes should be change to
now % tz = hour+sign(minute,hour)*m2h
or
now % tz = values(4)*m2h

Thanks a lot -- I believe you are correct. Can you give an example case in which the current code produces an erroneous value? I'm trying to understand it better.

For example, if you are in New York or someplace, zone=="-0530", then hour==-5 and minute==30
now % tz = hour+minute*m2h
so tz==-4.50, it is wrong!
the right answer is -5.50!
