I will order a TinyGPS soon. I would like to understand the basic coding first provided in the examples. The code I am looking at comes from the rtc_ds3231.h library example

I don't understand why unixtime isn't showing up.
Also, the year is showing up as 1915 instead of 2015. I'm trying to figure out how to correct it.
boolean flags[5] = { 0, 0, 0, 0 };
is this where you set the timer?
when the timer goes off is that when it will take a temp reading? Right now the serial monitor is only showing the time as 1915.01.04 15:27:48
parse means it stores the data taken correct? How do I access this data? In the examples i've seen so far every code that used parsed also used a SD card. Is the SD card built into the DS3231 chip?
