pretty_dates

<code>pretty_dates()</code> identifies which unit of time the sub-intervals should be
measured in to provide approximately n breaks, then chooses a "pretty"
length for the sub-intervals and sets start and end points that 1) span the
entire range of the data, and 2) allow the breaks to occur on important
date-times (i.e. on the hour, on the first of the month, etc.)

Functions to work with date-times and time-spans: fast and
user friendly parsing of date-time data, extraction and updating of
components of a date-time (years, months, days, hours, minutes, and
seconds), algebraic manipulation on date-time and time-span objects.
The 'lubridate' package has a consistent and memorable syntax that
makes working with dates easy and fun.
