Hi folks,
I've got a POSIXct datum as follows:
Sys.time()
[1] "2010-07-23 11:29:59 BST"
I want to convert this to the nearest half-hour, i.e., to
"2010-07-23 11:30:00 BST"
(If the time were "11:59:ss", I want to convert to "12:00:00").
How to achieve this?
Couldn't you just coerce to numeric, divide by 60(sec)*30(half-hour
minutes), round to integer, multiply by 60*30, coerce to POSIXct?
