Dear, According to the documentation, the parameters given in "dates" are passed to the function "chron". When trying this out, it turns out that this apparently doesn't happen, eg:
> dates("20100101",format="Ymd",out.format="day mon year") [1] 01/01/10 > chron("20100101",format="Ymd",out.format="day mon year") [1] 01 Jan 2010 I would expect the outcome of both functions to be the same, or am I overlooking something?
