Hi, all Here I created a data frame like mydates<- seq(as.Date("2010-05-29"), length = 43, by = "day") myvalues<-runif(43,0,1) myframe<-data.frame(dates=mydates, day=weekdays(dates), value=myvalues) dates day value 1 2010-05-29 Saturday 0.14576143 2 2010-05-30 Sunday 0.37669604 3 2010-05-31 Monday 0.74813943 4 2010-06-01 Tuesday

Hi all, I am trying to convert all the dates (all days that are not Friday) in data frame into dates to next Friday. The following works but the result is returned as vector rather than the original class. It would be greatly apprecited if you could provide any solution to this problem. Many thanks in advance. # Define arbitrary initial date value ini <- as.Date("2010/1/1",

Hello, I am trying to do a loop with dates, but when I try to use the index is not a date.

Dear R-users, How do I obtain a sequence of dates consisting of only weekdays without the weekends in R? In S, I can do the following: timeSeq(from="12/17/2007", to="8/25/2008", by="weekdays") I tried using looking at timeSequence (fSeries package) and seq.Date (base package) but I do not know if I can specify "weekdays" rather than "day".

I need to create a vector of dates, weekdays only for a function I am working on. Thanks to the chron library, I have managed to accomplish this, but is there is a better / easier way. This is what I have thus far. range.dates <- seq.dates('02/02/2009', '03/13/2009', by = 'days') range.days <- weekdays(range.dates) weekends <-

Hello All: I am trying to generate a sequence of dates using library(chron). Using the following code, I got most of what I want, dts <- seq.dates("01/02/1998", "01/10/2001", by="day") dts <- dts[!is.weekend(dts)] a sequence of weekdays only (no weekend dates), with first observation appearing as 01/02/98 and the last 01/10/01. But I would

Hello, I have some unbalanced panel data that is measured on weekdays only (i.e., excluding Saturday and Sunday). I would like to get the number of days between dates such that the number of days between a Friday and a Monday is 1 (and not 3). Here is some code to illustrate my problem: library('Hmisc'); DATE <-

Hi, i''m writing a timesheet application in which i need to know when the holidays are, (bank holidays, etc) Is there a very clever way of getting this info that wouldnt require me to manually add it to my database?? Thanks Chris -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi All, I am iterating through dated materials, with variable start and end dates, and would like to skip procedures everytime I encounter a weekend or holiday. To do this, I thought the easiest way would be to create a TRUE/FALSE vector corresponding to each day where it is TRUE if a workday, and FALSE if a weekend or holiday. So far I have been able to do this for weekdays: startDate <-

I found a tutorial for creating classes using generic functions ? S3 way ! It was short description so I couldn't grok in full its usage ... So far so good, what i currently do is something like this : Blah <- function(data,...) UseMethod('Blah') Blah.default <- function( ...... ) { self = .... class(self) <- 'Blah' self } Blah.some_method <-

Hi, I tried to read xlsx files by "XLConnect" packages, but the dates are one day earlier than it is supposed to be. I moved from California to Taiwan (Eastern Asia), and it worked well in California, but not in Taiwan. Even if I adjust my Mac time to California time zone, it gives the wrong dates. I don't know which part of the setting (in RStudio or in my Mac?) I should adjust.

I just started playing with rails this week and am working on porting our existing website to rails in our navigation we have a list that has the days of the week that link to the articles for those days. this seems to be working when I had it in the template it would give me the array I was looking for so I decided to move it to the helper so that I could use it on all my templates.

Question from an [R] novice... Hi, I have a vector of date/times like the one shown below (a truncated sample of a much longer list...) > dates[1:4] [1] "2006-03-16 08:41:00" "2006-03-16 10:28:00" "2006-03-16 11:03:00" [4] "2006-03-16 11:04:00" I would like to generate a weekday histogram showing the frequency of dates falling on each weekday. I know

Jim, I don't see how that link could be related to John's issue. Symptoms related to your link involve discrepancies of four years whereas John is seeing discrepancies of one day.

Dear colleagues, particularly academic ones, So I'm creating a Microsoft Word template for myself so that every time I teach a new course, I don't have to enter in the dates manually for each class session. I'd like to use an R script that can generate an irregular series of dates starting from one date (semester begin) to another (semester end) using an irregular interval in
