as-zoned-time-sys-time {clock} | R Documentation |
This is a sys-time method for the as_zoned_time()
generic.
Converting to a zoned-time from a sys-time retains the underlying duration,
but changes the printed time, depending on the zone
that you choose.
Remember that sys-times are interpreted as UTC.
If you want to retain the printed time, try converting to a zoned-time from a naive-time, which is a time point with a yet-to-be-determined time zone.
