Hi All,

I have time series data in (Year-month-date-hour-minute-second) format
and i want to convert it to epoch time.

I have tried the following:
*> Sys.time()**
**[1] "2013-11-17 10:39:46 MYT"**
**> as.numeric(Sys.time())**
**[1] 1384656006**

Should we assume this is "epoch time"?

**> as.numeric("2013-11-17 10:39:46 MYT")**
**[1] NA**
**Warning message:**
**NAs introduced by coercion **
**> as.numeric("2013-11-17 10:39:46 MYT")**
**[1] NA**

If it is then this is close:

as.numeric(as.POSIXct("2013-11-17 10:39:46 MYT"))

(You may need to supply an appropriate TZ offset in seconds

?POSIXct

Please let me know which function in R converts date-time to epoch time.
