Description

This is a year-month-day method for the calendar_widen() generic. It widens a year-month-day vector to the specified precision.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'clock_year_month_day'
calendar_widen(x, precision)

Arguments

x	⁠[clock_year_month_day]⁠ A year-month-day vector.
precision	⁠[character(1)]⁠ One of: "year" "month" "day" "hour" "minute" "second" "millisecond" "microsecond" "nanosecond"

Value

x widened to the supplied precision.

Examples

# Month precision
x <- year_month_day(2019, 1)
x

# Widen to day precision
calendar_widen(x, "day")

# Or second precision
sec <- calendar_widen(x, "second")
sec

# Second precision can be widened to subsecond precision
milli <- calendar_widen(sec, "millisecond")
micro <- calendar_widen(sec, "microsecond")
milli
micro

# But once you have "locked in" a subsecond precision, it can't
# be widened again
try(calendar_widen(milli, "microsecond"))
