day_periods: A table with rule sets for naming periods of a day

day_periodsR Documentation

A table with rule sets for naming periods of a day

Description

The day_periods table contains rules for naming periods of time throughout a day. There are 519 rows that comprise a day period name and rule for a locale. There may be only two rows associated with a locale but many more if a locale has many names for periods of a day. The following columns are included:

  • locale (character)

  • period (character)

  • from (character)

  • to (character)

  • at (character)

The period value provides an identifier for the period of time. For a given locale there may typically be "afternoon1" and "evening1" period identifiers. Some may have quite a few periods defined (perhaps with "morning1" and "morning2" rules). A period is either a block of time defined by the from and to columns, or, a set time (like "noon" and "midnight") found in the at column. The period values are typically obtained from this dataset in order to obtain localized text from the dates and dates_generic datasets (within the ⁠dayperiods_*⁠ columns).

Usage
