     A summary and description of R's base functions  implementing the

     The functions are:

       'strptime'         Turns charater representations into POSIXlt,
       'as.POSIXlt'       Converts into POSIXlt,
       'ISOdatetime'      Returns an object of class POSIXct,
       'ISOdate'          Returns an object of class POSIXct,
       'seq'              Creates sequence of class POSIXct,
       'as.POSIXct'       Converts into POSIXct,
       'Sys.timeDate'     Returns system time as an object of class 'timeDate',
       'format'           Turns POSIXt into character representations,
       'strftime'         Represents an alias for format.POSIXlt,
       'as.character'     Calls format function,
       'Sys.time'         Returns system time,
       'Sys.timezone'     Returns system timezone,
       'print'            Prints POSIXt objects, generic function,
       '"-"'              Subtracts,
       'time1 lop time2'  Logical Operation into PSOIXlt,
       'time1 - time2'    Returns an obejct of class difftime,
       'difftime'         Takes a difference,
       'as.difftieme'     Converts into difftime,
       'round'            Rounds difftime, generic function,
       'as integer'       Converts POSIXt into integer,
       'as.numeric'       Converts POSIXt into integer,
       'as.character'     Converts POSIXt into character,
       'as.data.frame'    Converts POSIXt into data frame,
       '"["'              Subsets a POSIXt object,
       'c'                Concatenates POSIXt objects,
       'min, max, range'  Minimum, Maximum, Range of POSIXt objects,
       'sort, rev, uniq'  Sorts, reverts, makes unique POSIXt objects,
       'Sys.Date'         Returns current Date as Date object,
       'format'           Turns Date into character representations,
       'print'            Prints POSIXt objects, generic function,
       'seq'              Creates sequence of class Date.
