parse_date_var: Parse a Date Var

In meerapatelmd/rubix: rubix Package

Description

This function takes a character variable of dates in various formats and parses it using a battery of parsing functions.

Usage

parse_date_var(.data, ..., quiet = TRUE, origin_eval = FALSE)

Arguments

origin_eval

if TRUE, includes evaluation of the variables as dates with origins of 1900-01-01 and 1970-01-01. Since the evaluation of origin is temperamental (ie 91884 is parsed into a date in 1997 which would be difficult to weed out downstream since it is a realistic date), it is not coalesced with the other parsed columns and is reported separately in the output.

Value

list of dataframes for each parsed date variable along with the parsed result resulting from a coalesce of all date parsing options
