is_link_broken

Used in testing links to external data, specifically inside of internal
package tests. Attempts to connect to link for the length of duration (in s).
If it fails it returns <code>FALSE</code>

The goal of the 'SwimmeR' package is to provide means of acquiring, and then analyzing, data from swimming (and diving) competitions.  To that end 'SwimmeR' allows results to be read in from .html sources, like 'Hy-Tek' real time results pages, '.pdf' files, 'ISL' results, 'Omega' results, and (on a development basis) '.hy3' files.  Once read in, 'SwimmeR' can convert swimming times (performances) between the computationally useful format of seconds reported to the '100ths' place (e.g. 95.37), and the conventional reporting format (1:35.37) used in the swimming community.  'SwimmeR' can also score meets in a variety of formats with user defined point values, convert times between courses ('LCM', 'SCM', 'SCY') and draw single elimination brackets, as well as providing a suite of tools for working cleaning swimming data.  This is a developmental package, not yet mature.
