datefixR 1.4.0 (2023-01-17)

Code changes

Support has been added for parsing dates converted to a numeric format by Excel. Unlike R which converts Date objects to numeric by calculating the number of days since 1970-01-01, Excel typically converts date cells to numeric cells by calculating the number of days since 1900-01-01. datefixR can be told to expect dates converted by Excel instead of R by passing excel = TRUE to datefixR's functions.

In datefixR 1.3.1, internal functions began to be converted to C++. This process unintentionally led to translations of some user-facing messages not being delivered to users. This bug has now been fixed.

Documentation

Added function documentation for the new excel argument and updated the "Getting Started" vignette with a section on converting numeric dates.
