    Dear Nathan,<br>
    <br>
    You could multiply by something large, but this will surely give you
    sequences too long.<br>
    What I would do is use the round() function in R to round the
    timestamps to integers.<br>
    You could also keep 2 digits and multiply by 100. It depends on the
    precision you need.<br>
    <br>
    Please consider subscribing to the TraMineR mailing list by going to
