[R] manipulating weeks dates

[Gabor Grothendieck]

Given that there are more than 7 * 52 days in a week you may
need to think about what it is that you want.

This will give you Jan 1 for Week 1, Jan 8 for Week 2, etc.

as.Date(paste(YEAR,1,1,sep="-")) + 7 * (WEEK - 1)

That or some variation of that might be suitable.  See the help
desk article in R News 4/1 for more info on dates.
