propagate_na

Propegate field missingness from higher to lower resolution

internal

Datetimes and timestamps are invariably an imprecise notation, with any
partial representation implying some amount of uncertainty. To handle this,
'parttime' provides classes for embedding partial missingness as a central
part of its datetime classes. This central feature allows for more ergonomic
use of datetimes for challenging datetime computation, including
calculations of overlapping date ranges, imputations, and more thoughtful
handling of ambiguity that arises from uncertain time zones. This package was
developed first and foremost with pharmaceutical applications in mind, but
aims to be agnostic to application to accommodate general use cases just as
conveniently.
