make_difftime()
creates a difftime object with the specified number of
units. Entries for different units are cumulative. difftime displays
durations in various units, but these units are estimates given for
convenience. The underlying object is always recorded as a fixed number of
seconds.

Conceptually, difftime objects are a type of duration. They measure the exact passage of time but do not always align with measurements made in larger units of time such as hours, months and years. This is because the length of larger time units can be affected by conventions such as leap years and Daylight Savings Time. lubridate provides a second class for measuring durations, the Duration class.
