  • It is represented as an integer (however, it is not enforced in the internal representation)
  • They are always printed following the rules of the current Gregorian calendar, even though the calendar was not in use a long time ago.
  • It doesn't keep track of timezones, so it should not be used to truncate the time out of POSIXct or POSIXlt objects.
  • sys.Date() returns an object of class Date
