precision

[character(1)]

• "microsecond"

• "nanosecond"

Examples

# Month precision
x <- year_month_day(2019, 1)
x

# Widen to day precision
calendar_widen(x, "day")

# Or second precision
sec <- calendar_widen(x, "second")
sec

# Second precision can be widened to subsecond precision
milli <- calendar_widen(sec, "millisecond")
micro <- calendar_widen(sec, "microsecond")
milli
micro

# But once you have "locked in" a subsecond precision, it can't
# be widened again
try(calendar_widen(milli, "microsecond"))
