Given a vector of dates, sort returns a vector of numerics instead of dates.
This is different from the behavior in version 2.2, where dates were returned.
In this respect, sort is not equivalent to order
On 8/3/2006 10:34 AM, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> noted that,
starting with R-2.3.0, sort() fails to preserve date classes:
> dates <- seq(Sys.Date(), len=5, by="1 day")
> dates[order(dates)]
> [1] "2006-08-03" "2006-08-04" "2006-08-05" "2006-08-06" "2006-08-07"
> sort(dates)
> [1] 13363 13364 13365 13366
