I would like to use POSIX classes to store dates and extract components of dates. Following the example in Spector ("Data Manipulation in R"), I create a date
> mydate = as. POSIXlt('2005-4-19 7:01:00') I then successfully extract the day with the command > mydate$day [1] 19 But when I try to extract the month > mydate$mon [1] 3 it returns the wrong month. And mydate$year is off by about 2,000 years. Am I doing something wrong? Dr. Seth W.
