Problem with strptime generating missing values where none appear to exist
Dear R Helpers,
I am having difficulty with strptime. I wish to find the differences between
two vectors of times. I have apparently no difficulty to convert the vectors
to the appropriate format using strptime. But, then difftime does not
calculate all the differences.
Here is the code and output:-
dob=strptime(as.character(datx$BDT),'%d-%b-%y'); dob$year=dob$year-100

subtracting 100 from strptime year vector generates missing values in POSIXct where none appear to exist in strptime year vector
