The {lubridate} package gives you data wrangling superpowers. My favorite trick: Convert text dates into actual dates. Just specify the orders of day, month and year and `parse_date_time()` will do the rest. It can even handle a mix of formats.

Doing calculations with time data is hard. But it's considerably easier with {lubridate}. You can use its convenience functions to ✅ make dates ✅ add subtract arbitrary time spans ✅ find time lengths between two time points
