📢 Simplifying Dates and Times in R: Base R vs. lubridate 📆⏰

as.Date() class: In R, as.Date() converts input to a date format. For example, class(as.Date("1881/10/25")) yields the "Date" class.

Today's date and time: Use today() and now() to fetch the current date or date and time effortlessly.

Class compatibility: as_date() (lubridate) and as.Date() (base R) produce the same "Date" class output.
