Converts a vector of dates or date-time representations into a
POSIXct object in the UTC time zone. The function accepts
POSIXct, Date, or character inputs and attempts to parse
character values using a predefined set of common date and date-time
formats. Values that cannot be parsed are returned as NA.
Arguments
- v
A vector of dates or date-time values. Can be of class
POSIXct, Date, or character.
Valeur de retour
A vector of class POSIXct with time zone set to UTC.
Unparsable values are returned as NA.
Détails
If v is already a POSIXct object, it is returned unchanged.
If v is a Date object, it is converted to POSIXct
with an implicit time of midnight (00:00:00) in UTC.
Character inputs are parsed iteratively using several common
date and date-time formats until all possible values are converted.
Exemples
if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
to_posix("2024-03-15 14:30")
to_posix(c("15/03/2024", "2024-03-16 08:00"))
to_posix(as.Date("2024-03-15"))
} # }
