Getting the last day of the month.
Hi, Given a date, how do I get the last date of that month? I have data in the form YYYYMM, that I've read as a date using > x$Date <- as.Date(ISOdate(substr(x$YearEnd,1,4),substr(x$YearEnd,5,6),1)) But this gives the first day of the month. To get the last day of the month, I tried > as.Date(as.yearmon(x$Date,frac=0)) But I don't get the last day of the month here....

Question on Merge/Lookup
I need to merge three datasets and don't know how. If I were using SQL, I would use df3, look up the characteristics of each date in df1 and the value for each observation in df2. df1 - unique list of Dates and characteristics of those dates Date, YYYYMM, YYYYWW, DOW df2 - the raw data Date, Place, Value df3 - all posibile combinations of Date + Place (via expand.grid(unique(df2$Date),unique(df2$Place)) Date, Place I need to end up with: Date, YYYYMM, YYYYWW, DOW, PLace, Value (plug 0 if combo doesn't exist in raw data). Appreciate any h...

Separating columns, and sorting by rows
Dear anyone who knows more about R than me (so everyone). I have been bashing my head on the keyboard all day trying to do something with my table. I have some data, like so: yyyy-mm Rainfall(mm) 1 1977-02 17.4 2 1977-03 34.0 3 1977-04 26.2 4 1977-05 42.6 5 1977-06 58.6 6 1977-07 23.2 7 1977-08 26.8 8 1977-09 48.4 9

Creating yyyymm regexp strings on the fly for aggregation.
Folks, This question is somewhat related to a previous posting of mine. I just can't seem to create a generic solution. Here is a function that I found searching around the internet: splitIt <- function(x, n) {split(x, sort(rank(x) %% n))} I use it like so: > splitIt(1:12, 2) $`0` [1] 1 2 3 4 5 6 $`1` [1] 7 8 9 10 11 12 Or > splitIt(1:12, 4) $`0` [1] 1 2 3 $`1` [1] 4 5 6

troubles reading a text file
Dear R experts, For quite some time I have been trying to solve a mistery of reading a seemingly trouble-free text file. The data is temperature reconstruction arranged as a huge grid, preceded by seven "header lines" (which you see better if file is opened in Firefox or Chrome). This is the data (gridded temperature reconstruction)

TS data frames
...t) and print(tsdataset) show that this operation did what I intended. * Alas, tsdataset$x no longer works. how do I specify data series inside tsdataset now? * Is there a time-series equivalent of read.table(), preferably allowing me to specify that the data column is the appropriate data in yyyymm format? * For arguments sake, let's assume I want to do something with every variable in my data set. for example, I want to convert every single data series into a time series. "for (a in names(dataset)) a<-ts(a)" of course does not do what I want, because the destination is...

googleVis motionchart - slow with Date class
...y slow to load and it appears when pressing play that the date field fills in each day of the year. Trying to go back and fourth between the line plot and the scatter plot will crash the browser. Is there a better way to express monthly data? I have tried converting it to a numeric in the form of yyyymmdd or yyyymm, but this didn't work? I am also wondering. is the best place to post a question about googleVis? I notice threads on stackoverflow and other places. Thanks, Matt [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

...re. The configuration is more or less stock. Postfix receives then delivers to Dovecot. IMAP with mbox. Only one user account, but shared by several people via webmail (Roundcube webmail in Apache on the same machine). No other MUAs. 100k new messages per month, inbox is rotated monthly into a YYYYMM folder by a cron job. Only one monthly folder so far. Messages are never deleted (but I may start deleting old folders a year or two from now). This is mostly for reading, with occasional messages being forwarded. The email was pretty sluggish when logging in to the webmail interface. I asked...

Basic date time arithmetics operations
Hello, For basic date time arithmetics operations, AFAK, there're actually the function difftime() and the (dt + num) operations. I'm wondering if other basic operations exist, like add(dt, num, unit) where unit would be "y", "q", "m", etc. Also for the function seq.dates (or seq.POSIXt), the case for by="months" would be more useful if it
