timeDate (version 4021.106)
Rmetrics - Chronological and Calendar Objects
Description
The 'timeDate' class fulfils the conventions of the ISO 8601
standard as well as of the ANSI C and POSIX standards. Beyond
these standards it provides the "Financial Center" concept
which allows to handle data records collected in different time
zones and mix them up to have always the proper time stamps with
respect to your personal financial center, or alternatively to the GMT
reference time. It can thus also handle time stamps from historical
data records from the same time zone, even if the financial
centers changed day light saving times at different calendar
dates.
