Hi to people in the forum, I'm doing some circular statistics in the package circular. My data is in hours and in months, and hours are easily recognised in the functions. However, it is not the case of months having only 12 potential values. I'm thinking in transform the data by dividing the circunference into 12 sections and then assign each month the average value of the section. For example, January will be represented by the value 15?, and June by the value 165. Is this approach adequate? Any alternative suggestion on how to transform the data of months in a circular variable. Really many thanks, best regards Pablo -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/months-in-circular-tp4640696.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
