===Tracking Time=== Keeping track of the sample times was very important for this project. As the samples are recorded by AEMO in discrete five minute (or thirty minute) intervals, we chose to simply use a reference point and data indices to track the passage of time. This allowed us to save significant memory space as storing time data separately would have meant two values per data point rather than just one. We chose a reference time of 1st January 2015 at 00:00:00 (the start of the new year). This means that midday on January 1st 2015 has an index of 144. The functions Sample- ToDatetime and DatetimeToSample perform the conversion between sample index and time strings.
