How to extract an interval of "hour:minute" type
I think one of the suggestion was to use something like, assuming you have the time in POSIXct format(x$time, format = "%H:%M:%S") >= "20:10:00" & format(x$time, format = "%H:%M:%S") <= "21:00:00" This takes the 'date' out of the equation. You can always write a function to do this for you.

I know how to do to compare "year1-mon1-day1 hour1:min1:sec1" with "year2-mon2-day2 hour2:min2:sec2" by converting 'character' into POSIXlt but I'd like to konw if there is another way to do this comparison without converting my POSIXLT column into 'character' . If possible, I want to work with DateTime format and not with string so that I do not make new conversions -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/How-to-extract-an-interval-of-hour-minute-type-tp4237144p4237800.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
