difftime Function in R (Example)
This tutorial shows how to compute the time difference of two date objects with the difftime() function in the R programming language.
Example Data
time_1 <- "2019-08-20 16:09:21" # First time object time_2 <- "2019-09-30 13:09:24" # Second time object |
Calculate Time Difference with difftime Function
difftime(time_1, time_2) # Application of difftime function # Time difference of -40.87503 days |
The time difference of our two date objects is 40.87503 days.
