date_sunrise() View as Markdown

I wish to get a grasp of date sunrise and I am using Sydney Australia
as an example..
The only info I can grasp is it takes the format of..
date_sunrise(mixed time [, int format [, float latitude [, float longitude [, float zenith [, float gmt_offset]]]]])

What formats are available in int format?
How do I express a latitude of 33°56' S as a float?
What is the zenith value?

hoping Moshe will see this
Kind regards
kevin

azimuth to the center of the sun. 90.83 say u start to c the first linear
sunshine.

I keep getting this error when I use a unix timestamp.
Warning: date_sunrise(): date must be timestamp for now
