Great!
Thank you!
I think the function with the C-like function should do the trick.

It depends on context. If you are studying traffic flow or
electricity usage, then you want local time with all its warts

Erin,
Is a sequential resolution of seconds required, as per your original post?
If so, then using my approach and specifying the start and end dates and times
will work, with the coercion of the resultant vector to numeric as I included.
The method I used (subtracting the first value) will als

If your activities of interest are mainly during the workday then
seconds-since-3am might give good results, avoiding most daylight
savings time issues. If they are more biologically oriented then
something like seconds before or after sunrise or sunset might be
better. Both can be expressed as d
What I would like to do is to look at several days and determine activities
that happened at times on those days. I don't really care which days, I
just care about what time.
Thank you!

Why do you want such a thing? E.g., do you want it to print the time
of day without the date? Or are you trying to avoid numeric problems
when you do regressions with

Hello!
If I would like to generate a sequence of seconds for a date, I would do
the following:
x <- seq(from=as.POSIXct(2014-08-12 00:00:00),to=as.POSIXct(2014-08-12
23:59:59),by="secs")
What if I just want the seconds vector without the date, please? Is there
a convenient way to create such a
