Adding time to POSIXct object in R

Question

I would like to add 1 hour to a POSIXct object, but it does not support \'+\'.

This command:

as.POSIXct(\"2012/06/30\",\"GMT\") 
    + as.POSIXct(pas         


        

Answer 1

The lubridate package also implements this nicely with convenience functions hours, minutes, etc.

x = Sys.time()
library(lubridate)
x + hours(3) # add 3 hours
