Time helpers and conversions (times)

Helper functions to convert arrays containing time information. All the functions with a 2 in the name provide the advertised conversions for scalar as well as for array input.

cwr2datetime	Converts a CWR-timesting into a datetime object.
cwr2str	Converts a CWR-timestring into a human-readable timestring.
cwr2unix	Converts a CWR-timestring to a unix timestamp.
datetime2doy	Extracts the day of year as a float from the given datetimes.
datetime2ordinal	Converts a datetime object into an ordinal.
datetime2str	Converts a datetime object into a human-readable string.
datetime2unix	Converts a dateime object into a unix-timestamp.
doy2datetime	Constructs a datetime object from given day of year.
iso2datetime	Converts an ISO formated time string to a datetime object.
iso2unix	Converts an ISO formated time string to a unix time stamp.
ordinal2datetime	Converts an ordinal to a datetime object.
str2datetime	Converts a human readable time string tinto a datetime object.
str2ordinal	Converts a human readable time string to an ordinal.
str2unix	Converts a time-string of the given d_format (default: "dd.mm.yyyy HH:MM:SS") into a unix-timestamp.
unix2cwr	Converts a unix-timestamp to a CWR-timestring.
unix2datetime	Convert a unix time stamp to a datetime object.
unix2ordinal	Converts a unix time stamp to an ordinal.
unix2str	Converts a unix-timestamp into a time-string of the given d_format (default: "dd.mm.yyyy HH:MM:SS").
time_part	Returns the "time_part" of a timestamp or datetimes.
time_part_sort	Groups "values" as a nested list according to the "sub_format_str" of the "timestamps".
timestamp2index	Calculates the array index for a certain time in an equidistant time-series given the reference time (where the index would be 0) and the time discretization.
index2timestamp	Calculates the ISOstring timestamp for a certain index in an equidistant time-series given the reference time (where the index would be 0) and the time discretization.
