(This article was first published on <strong><a href="http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com/blog/2017/02/04#nanotime_0.1.1"> Thinking inside the box </a></strong>, and kindly contributed to <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.r-bloggers.com/">R-bloggers)</a> </div>
<p>A new version of the <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com/code/nanotime.html">nanotime</a> package for working with nanosecond timestamps is now on <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://cran.r-project.org/">CRAN</a>.</p>
<p><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com/code/nanotime.html">nanotime</a> uses the <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com/code/rcpp.cctz.html">RcppCCTZ</a> package for (efficient) high(er) resolution time parsing and formatting, and the <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://cran.r-project.org/package=bit64">bit64</a> package for the actual <code>integer64</code> arithmetic.</p>
<p>This release adds an improved default display format always showing nine digits of fractional seconds. It also changes the <code>print()</code> method to call <code>format()</code> first, and we started to provide some better default <code>Ops</code> methods. These fixes were suggested by <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://github.com/mattdowle">Matt Dowle</a>. We also corrected a small issue which could lead to precision loss in formatting as pointed out by <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://github.com/lsilvest">Leonardo Silvestri</a>.</p>

<h4>Changes in version 0.1.1 (2017-02-04)</h4>
<ul>
<li>
<p>The default display format now always shows nine digits (<a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://github.com/eddelbuettel/nanotime/pull/10">#10</a> closing <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://github.com/eddelbuettel/nanotime/pull/9">#9</a>)</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>The default print method was updated to use formated output, and a new new converter <code>as.integer64</code> was added</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Several ‘Ops’ method are now explicitly defined allowing casting of results (rather than falling back on bit64 behaviour)</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>The format routine is now more careful about not loosing precision (<a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://github.com/eddelbuettel/nanotime/issues/13">#13</a> closing <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://github.com/eddelbuettel/nanotime/issues/12">#12</a>)</p>
</li>
</ul>
