Yes, something is strange for me too (RedHat 8): > ISOdate(1900,3,1) [1] "1900-03-01 13:00:00 CET" > ISOdate(1900,3,2) [1] "1900-03-01 13:00:00 CET" Apparently, the one-day shift affects all dates after March 2, 1900, and in no other year. One easily gets the suspicion that the fact that 1900 was *not* a leap year has something to do with it. However, strptime() which this calls indirectly is only as good as its OS-level counterpart, I believe. -- O__ ---- Peter Dalgaard Blegdamsvej 3 c/ /'_ --- Dept. of Biostatistics 2200 Cph.
