格式化日期

要格式化 Dates，我們使用 format(date, format="%Y-%m-%d") 函式與 POSIXct（由 as.POSIXct() 給出）或 POSIXlt（由 as.POSIXlt() 給出）

d = as.Date("2016-07-21") # Current Date Time Stamp

format(d,"%a")            # Abbreviated Weekday
## [1] "Thu"

format(d,"%A")            # Full Weekday
## [1] "Thursday"

format(d,"%b")            # Abbreviated Month
## [1] "Jul"

format(d,"%B")            # Full Month
## [1] "July"

format(d,"%m")            # 00-12 Month Format
## [1] "07"

format(d,"%d")            # 00-31 Day Format
## [1] "21"

format(d,"%e")            # 0-31 Day Format
## [1] "21"

format(d,"%y")            # 00-99 Year
## [1] "16"

format(d,"%Y")            # Year with Century
## [1] "2016"
