Get the date and time in unix time

There is a date and time, for example 08.06.2013 15:40.

How can I get the unix time of this date using PHP?

$date = '2016-05-24 16:32:45';
$timestamp = strtotime($date);

You can use the function getTimestamp (documentation)

Rather, you should do this:

$date = '2016-05-24 16:32:45';

$timestamp = strtotime($date);

In the example above, an error is made, instead of strtotime($date), the function call strtotime() is specified without the variable $date.
