isotime\_to\_elements
}
{ %%%%%% Algorithm summary %%%%%%
This algorithm takes a series of ISO 8601 strings and splits them into their composant values 
(year, month, day, hour, minute, second) using the Python dateutil module. This module is format
agnostic, and will recognize any ISO 8601 format.
