ms: Parse periods with hour, minute, and second components

Description

Transforms a character or numeric vector into a period object with the specified number of hours, minutes, and seconds. hms() recognizes all non-numeric characters except '-' as separators ('-' is used for negative durations). After hours, minutes and seconds have been parsed, the remaining input is ignored.

Usage

ms(..., quiet = FALSE, roll = FALSE)
hm(..., quiet = FALSE, roll = FALSE)
hms(..., quiet = FALSE, roll = FALSE)

Arguments
