Convention difference in tseries.maxdrawdown (PR#8872)
Full_Name: Brian K. Boonstra Version: 2.2.1 OS: WinXP, OSX Submission from: (NULL) (63.172.178.137) The maxdrawdown function in tseries defines the maximum drawdown in terms of absolute dollars (or whatever units the input is in).

The time series analysis functions/packages don't seem to like my data
...2009-06-25 47.43 I have loaded Rmetrics and PerformanceAnalytics, among other packages. I tried as.timeseries, but R2.9.1 tells me there is no such function. I tried as.ts(thedata), but that only replaces the date field by the row label in 'thedata'. If I apply the performance analytics drawdowns function to either thedata or thedate$V2, I get errors: > table.Drawdowns(thedata,top = 10) Error in 1 + na.omit(x) : non-numeric argument to binary operator > table.Drawdowns(thedata$V2, top = 10) Error in if (thisSign == priorSign) { : missing value where TRUE/FALSE needed > thedata$V...

read.csv, header=TRUE but skip the first line
Hi, Complete newbie to R here. Just getting started reading manuals and playing with data.

newbie - read.csv creates a (data.frame, table, array, matrix, ...) and plotting one column
Hi all, Newbie alert. OK, I'm reading the help file using Ted's suggestion of ?read.csv or ?read.table, etc., and trying to understand exactly what R has created for me when I do the read.csv command. The overall header says read.table creates a 'data.frame', which is fine with me as it works, but throughout the help file I run into the words table, matrix, array and others. Are

R problem: unable to read data in the xls-format in the PerformAnalytics package
...llo I have the following problem 1) Problem: I am unable to read data in the xls-format in the PerformAnalytics package. While it works well for several commands, e.g. t(table.Stats(msci_ret)) it does not work for other commands, e.g. x <- msci_ret[, c("CH"), drop = FALSE] table.Drawdowns(x) The error code is: Error in checkData(R) : The data cannot be converted into a time series. If you are trying to pass in names from a data object with one column, you should use the form 'data[rows, columns, drop = FALSE]'. Rownames should have standard date formats, such as '...

block statistics with POSIX classes
I have a monthly price index series x, the related return series y = diff(log(x)) and a POSIXlt date-time variable dp. I would like to apply annual blocks to compute for example annual block maxima and mean of y. When studying the POSIX classes, in the first stage of the learning curve, I computed the maximum drawdown of x: > mdd <- maxdrawdown(x) > max.dd <- mdd$maxdrawdown > from
