Hi!
I'm confused by this:
as.numeric(as.POSIXct(518400,**origin=2001-01-01))
[1] 978822000
I guess the problem is that as.numeric() assumes a different origin, but
cannot find
any default origin.
How can I get back the seconds from the POSIXct format? In other words,
which the inverse function of as.POSIXct()?
I've tried as.numeric and unclass() using a origin= argument, but this does
not work.
Thanks
Agus
