Description
time creates the vector of times at which a
time series was sampled.
offset can be used to indicate when sampling took place
in the time unit.
0 indicates the start of the unit, 0.5 the middle and
1 the end of the interval.
start and end extract
the times the first and last observations were taken
and frequency returns the number of samples per unit time.
tsp(x) returns the vector c(start(x),end(x),frequency(x)).
It is included for compatibility with the S language.
Usage

start(x)
end(x)
frequency(x)
tsp(x)
