Mark, not sure that's the answer.
Usually one has x=y --> f(x)=f(y)
which doesn't seem to hold here (put x=zzz1, y=zzz2, f=as.Date()).
Or do I overlook something?

Subject: Re: [R] as.Date question
Look at documentation
?as.Date
as.Date first represents time in UTC, what gives:
as.POSIXlt(zzz1, tz="UTC")

All!
This piece of code:
zzz1 <- as.POSIXct("1999-03-18", tz="CET")
zzz2 <- as.POSIXlt("1999-03-18", tz="CET")
zzz1 == zzz2
as.Date(zzz1)
as.Date(zzz2)
yields TRUE for "zzz1==zzz2", but the two dates returned by as.Date are
different:
as.Date(zzz1)
[1] "1999-03-17"
as.Date(zzz2)
[1] "1999-03-18"
I'm using R 2.10.0.
Would be glad for any clarifications. Thanks!
