In addition, we have a DateArray class, which implements an array of Dates (you didn't see that coming...) and whose dtype is int64. The reason why we wanted to stick to ints was to permit a direct correspondence index<->date in an array. If you know the first date and the timestep, you can get the date corresponding to any element of your series, and vice-versa.
