How to plot dates
Hi Greg,
As the POSIX conversion part is already answered, I'll add:
as.Date("16/03/2021",format="%d/%m/%Y")
converts to Date object and
axis.Date()
will display dates on the date axis in base graphics.

I store in a text file the dates and times that an event occurred.
How do I direct R to import these text characters, and store the year,
month, day, hour, minute, and second as a date?
How do I then plot this series of dates?
