Convert day of year to date

I found that @TMS answer ignores the year specified in the origin, replacing it with the actual year you are executing the command (as @Shekeine found). Doing this seems to work fine though:

as.Date(104, origin = "2014-01-01")

CAUTION: day-of-year is zero based in this case!

This is the way I do it:

as.Date(104, format = "%j", origin = "1.1.2014")
# "2014-04-15"
