fmt_date()
lets us format date-based values in a convenient manner using
preset styles. The table generated by info_date_style()
provides a quick
reference to all styles, with associated format names and example outputs
using a fixed date (2000-02-29
).
Arguments
- locale
Locale identifier
scalar<character>
// default:NULL
(optional
)An optional locale identifier that can be used for displaying formatted date values according to the locale's rules. Examples include
"en"
for English (United States) and"fr"
for French (France). We can callinfo_locales()
for a useful reference for all of the locales that are supported.
Examples
Get a table of info on the different date-formatting styles (which are used
by supplying a number code to fmt_date()
).
