## Getters: date-time

### Description

These are POSIXct/POSIXlt methods for the getter generics.

- `get_year()` returns the Gregorian year.

- `get_month()` returns the month of the year.

- `get_day()` returns the day of the month.

- There are sub-daily getters for extracting more precise components, up to a precision of seconds.

For more advanced component extraction, convert to the calendar type that you are interested in.
