where

yyyy
-
is an integer that represents the year.

The Taiwanese calendar uses 1912 as the base year (01/01/01
is January 1, 1912). Dates before 1912 appear as a series of asterisks. Year
values do not roll around after 100 years; instead, they continue to increase.
The example table uses the following input values:
-
12054 is the SAS date value that
corresponds to
January 1, 1993.
-
18993 is the SAS date value that corresponds to
January 1, 2012.
-
-20088 is the SAS date value that corresponds
to January 1, 1905.
