R code of this video:
x1 ＜- "2025-10-22 07:32:59" # Create example date & time
x1 # Print example date & time
class(x1) # Check class of data object
x1_POSIX ＜- as.POSIXlt(x1) # Convert class to POSIXlt
x1_POSIX # Print POSIXlt object
class(x1_POSIX) # Check class of data object
x2 ＜- "22-10-2025 07:32" # Create example date & time
x2 # Print example date & time
x2a_POSIX ＜- as.POSIXlt(x2) # as.POSIXlt without specific format
x2a_POSIX # Wrong output
x2b_POSIX ＜- as.POSIXlt(x2, # Specify format argument properly
format = "%d-%m-%Y %H:%M")
x2b_POSIX # Correct output
