format formats a jul or time index object for printing.
as.character for a jul or ti object is
essentially just an alias for format.
Usage
## S3 method for class 'ti':
format(x, ..., tz = "")
## S3 method for class 'jul':
format(x, ...)
## S3 method for class 'ti':
as.character(x, ...)
## S3 method for class 'jul':
as.character(x, ...)
Arguments
x
a jul or ti (time index) object
tz
A timezone specification to be used for the conversion if
x has an intraday frequency. System-specific, but "" is
the current time zone, and "GMT" is UTC.
...
other args passed on to format.POSIXlt.
Value
a character vector representing x
Details
The as.character methods do nothing but call the corresponding
format methods.
x is converted to a POSIXlt object and then
format.POSIXlt takes over.
