Loop trouble with Excel Serial Numbers!
Hi All!
I'm trying to convert serial numbers in Excel to dates in R. For each
single "thedate" entry, I get a correct answer. But if I try using the for
loop, I get bizarre numbers in "mynewdata".
thedate<-as.matrix(40548:40759,ncol=1)
exdate<-function(){
mynewdate<-NULL
for(i in 1:nrow(thedate)){
mynewdate[i]<-as.Date(thedate[i,1],origin="1899-12-30")
}
print(mynewdate)
}
exdate()
Thank you very much!
