similar to: Changing x-axis when dealing with time

Hi, I am using read.table to get this data that has a timestamp. The data is for many days, but I only want to run the code I wrote only for specific day/days/times. I can´t figure out how to select a timeframe from the list. I have tried using subset() and didn't work I then used: * timestamp[for(timestamp==as.character("2011-03-15 00:00:00" ) |

Hello dear useRs and wizaRds, I encountered the following problem using the hist() method for the 'times' classes from package 'chron'. You should be able to recreate it using the code: library(chron) # pasted from chron help file (?chron) dts <- dates(c("02/27/92", "02/27/92", "01/14/92", "02/28/92", "02/01/92")) class(dts)

I can't get the scales parameter in xyplot of lattice to work as I expected. I'm using R-2.1.0 and lattice 0.11-8. There should be year labels from 1992 to 2004 for the x axis in the plot below, but instead only a few of them appear, and in the wrong spots, as if the coordinate system has changed after finishing with the panel function. library(chron) library(lattice) # vertical grid

Hi all, I'm having difficulty converting a 'dates' object to a POSIXct object: testDATES<-c(35947,35971,36004,36008,36053,36066) testDATES<-chron(dates=testDATES, format = c(dates = "m/d/y"), origin=c(month = 12, day = 30, year = 1899)) >[1] 06/01/98 06/25/98 07/28/98 08/01/98 09/15/98 09/28/98 > as.POSIXct(testDATES) [1] NA NA NA NA NA NA

I've been trying to understand the as.Date functionality and I have a date and time stamp field that looks like this: "Tue Sep 15 09:22:09 -0600 2009" and I need to turn it into an R Date object for analysis. Simple date conversions I have down, no problem: > adate = c("7/30/1959") > as.Date(adate,"%m/%d/%Y") [1] "1959-07-30" > But when it

Dear "R-listers" I've been trying to figure out how to annotate charts in ggplot (ie add text to line charts, highlighted boxes etc). By and large, I can get close to what i want with base graphics, but would ideally like to use ggplot whenever possible (additionally, i would like to add text labels automatically to the chart). The code is below I suspect I need to use geom_rect,

Hello. I am having the worst time converting x-axis date ticks to real dates. I have tried several suggestions in online help tips and books to no avail. For example, the x-axis has 0, 50, 100, etc, and I want it to have "6/17/03", "8/6/03" etc. See attached (sample). Can anybody help me with this. Here's my code: ts.plot(date.attackmode.table[,1],

Hi to all, I have some problems to get the times-scale to the x-axis the times are coming from an excel sheet f. e [1] "0:01:00" "0:02:00" "0:03:00" "0:04:00" "0:05:00" "0:06:00" "0:07:00" [8] "0:08:00" "0:09:00" "0:10:00" "0:11:00" "0:12:00" "0:13:00"

I'm trying to use/modify some code I found (at Omegahat, but I've seem similar usage elsewhere.) It contains the lines: if(any(origin(chronDate)!=orig)) origin(chronDate) <- orig Let's say: > require("chron") [1] TRUE > chronDate <- chron("11/15/2005", format="m/d/y", origin.=c(12,31,1899)) > orig <- c(month=12, day=31,

I was just looking for an easy way to convert between COM datetime and chron datetime (both ways.) I found examples on the list, but they involved origin. Does anyone have functions for converting COM datetime <-> chron datetimethat work "safely"? David L.

I'm trying to plot a ibm stock time series. I made the download of that series, ibm <- get.hist.quote(instrument = "ibm", start = "2003-01-01",quote=c("CL")) And ibm is a serie wiht this characteristic: Start = 37623 End = 37960 Frequency = 1 When I try to plot it, ts.plot(ibm) In the graphic the axe time is represented by 37623 ... 37960, How can I put

Another newbie question I got the 1 minute spine interpolation and 15 mean aggregation working with many thanks to Gabor Grothendieck using Zoo functions. I got a tip from Hasan Diwan to look at xts but it seemed I would make better progress using code from Gabor. Now I'm having trouble plotting this zoo object. I'm thinking I want a function to "split" the zoo object back to

Dear R-helpers, In my data set, I have a time variable 'RecordTime' whose class property is 'times'. When I list my data set, I see the values of RecordTime is like 10:20:30 in a 'h:m:s' format. Suppose I want to choose all the data after 10 o'clock, then use subset(data,RecordTime>10:20:30) just doesn't work. I noticed that all the values of RecordTime seem

Hi All, I am running a scatter plot and trying to add a best fit line. I use an abline function, but get no line drawn over the points. I also get no error. I arm using V 2.10.0 on Windows 7. Here is my code, including the SAS transport file import: require (foreign) require (chron) require (Hmisc) require (lattice) clin <- sasxport.get("y:\\temp\\subset.xpt") attach(clin)

Thanks to Joshua Wiley for turning me on to ggplot2. I am making a plot using this: p <- ggplot(dallas, aes(x = offense_hour)) + geom_bar() + coord_polar() Dallas is a data frame, and offense_hour is a column with chron objects from the chron library. In this case, the chron object was created with the times function. It is only a time (H:M:S) with no date attached. The plot shows up fine,

Dear R-Group, the first example is working as expected, but I need the plot without the box, normally no problem, but I am not able to get the x-axis formatted as times with the axis, command. I tried a lot of things, nothing was working so I used the most easy axis command in the second example here .... # working library(chron) # for times() library(graphics)# for axis

New user here. My goal is pull daily averages from a long dataset. I've been working with some code I got from this list from https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2009-March/191302.html The code how I have been using it is as follows: library(zoo) library(chron) DB<-read.table("/Users/me/Desktop/R/data.csv", sep=",", header=TRUE, as.is =TRUE) z<-zoo(LTER6$temp,

Running R 2.13.1 on Windows XP. I would like to get week of the year (1-52) for each date. library(chron) dts <- dates(c("02/27/92", "02/27/92", "01/14/92","02/28/92", "02/01/92")) dts dts.chron <- as.chron(dts) dts.chron class(dts.chron) # all of these component extractions work: months(dts.chron) weekdays(dts.chron) years(dts.chron)

Hello, I am trying to use HMisc describe on a data frame. I have specified certain variables as dates using, for example: df1$aidsdate <- dates(aidsdate,format="day.mon.year", origin=c(month = 1, day = 1, year = 1960)) When I use describe on the dataframe I get this error: Error in Ops.dates(weights, x) : * not defined for chron objects Has anyone had this problem?
