Subject: How to extract an interval of "hour:minute" type
In-Reply-To: <1325008943809-4237800.post@n4.nabble.com>
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.
