timeSpan
Constructor Function For timeSpan Class
Description
Constructs an object of class timeSpan.
Usage
timeSpan(charvec, in.format, format, julian, ms)
Arguments
|
You can call this function with no arguments. If you supply any arguments,
at least one of charvec, julian, or ms must be
present.
|
charvec |
the character vector to parse.
|
in.format |
the time span input format for parsing. Defaults to
timeDateOptions("tspan.in.format").
|
format |
the output format to apply to the returned object. Defaults to
timeDateOptions("tspan.out.format").
|
julian |
the integer vector of days of the time span. Can be a non-integer
if ms is missing, in which case the fractional part represents
fractions of days.
|
ms |
an integer vector of milliseconds of the time span.
|
Details
- If charvec is given, the in.format is used
to parse charvec into time spans, and the julian and
ms arguments are ignored (with a warning to the user if they are present).
- If format is given, it is put into the format slot of the output.
- If julian and/or ms are provided instead of charvec, these
values are put into the timeSpan as the number of days and milliseconds,
respectively, of the time span.
Value
returns a timeSpan object constructed from the input. If you provide
no arguments, returns the default (empty) timeSpan object.
