Remove seconds from time in R

Question

I am trying to remove the seconds from a column of hours in POSIXct format:

#\"2016-04-02 10:33:45 COT\" \"2016-04-02 22:19:24 COT\"
#\"2016-04-09 17:47:13 C         


        

Answer 1

you can use round.POSIXt:

round(Sys.time(), units = "mins")
#"2017-01-30 11:20:00 CET"
