Can someone clarify what 'w = 126060*1000 # half day in ms'stands for in below coding?


Indexing 

import pandas as pd

w = 126060*1000 # half day in ms

df.index = pd.to_datetime(df.index)



Thanks in advance for your time and support.

To convert 1 hour into milliseconds, you need to multiply it by 60601000. So, to convert 12 hours (which is half-day), you need to multiply it by 126060*1000.
