similar to: Missing times chron

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)

Hey R folks, i found some strange (to me) behaviour with chron to POSIXct conversion. The two lines of code result in two different results, on ewith the correct time zone, one without: library(chron) as.POSIXct(chron('12/12/2000'), tz = 'UTC') as.POSIXlt(chron('12/12/2000'), tz = 'UTC') Only the code below would give me a POSIXct object with the correct time

Dear help list, I have a timestamp in as a chron object: > (x <- chron(dates = c("12/02/11", "22/11/11"), + times = c("07:30:00", "04:00:00"), + format = c(dates = "d/m/y", times = "h:m:s"))) [1] (12/02/11 07:30:00) (22/11/11 04:00:00) Now I want to shift the timestamp by 06:30 (hh:mm) backwards, to get

The default is "h:m:s". what am I

hello I think I've found a bug I don't know if it's a chron bug or a R one. (05/12/05 23:00:00) +1/24 gives (05/12/05 24:00:00) instead of (05/13/05 00:00:00) it looks like the same but it's not because when you get the date of this datetime it says day 12 instead of 13. Please, forward it to the place where this bugs are supposed to be posted. cheers -- View this message

Hi! Is not there an standard R function to retrieve the day of the year (since 1st Jan of the same year)? I know I can make my own using julian, but find it weird that having days(), months() etc doy() does not exist as an standard function. Also, is the following not a bit inconsistent? > a <- chron("20100506",format="ymd") > a [1] 100506 > years(a) [1] 2010

Dear R users, I have the following script to create bins of specified time intervals bin_end=60/bin_size bin_size=bin_size*100 h=seq(070000,180000,by=10000) breaks=c() for (i in h) { for (j in 0:(bin_end-1)) { value=i+(bin_size)*j breaks=append(breaks,value) } } I would like to plot then using the time as x-axis. I tried the following prova=zoo(myseries,times(breaks)) but of

Hello, I'm very interested in using financial time series data, but I'm a beginner of R programming. I'd like to fully understand internal logics on several time-series related packages such as quantmod, xts, zoo, chron, etc. So, I read some books, 'R Cookbook' and 'Art of R Programming' and another simple tutorials. But I still can't understand grammars of the

I have two local variables: startTime and expectedStartTime. Both are chron related objects. When I look at the class for the objects I can see they are of class "times". When I print them to the console, they both read: "09:30:00" When I print them as.numeric(), they both read: 0.3958333 When I try and compare them: (as.numeric(startTime) == as.numeric(expectedStartTime)) it

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)

Hi! I have an input table with a column "Dates" in the format "month/day/year" (eg. "5/11/1999" and a column "Times" in the format "hours/minutes" (eg. "15:20"). In R I need to convert them into chron objects to extract colums only containing months, days, minutes, .. For the dates it is no problem if I write:

Hi list, I have some questions regarding 1) conversion of date + time characters to chron 2) formatting chron object printing Regarding (1), Gabor's Rnews 2004 4/1 article has been indispensible, but I often work with files where dates and times are contained in a single field. In this case, I would like to control input/output of chron objects when each observation of date and time is

the date were created with chron with this argument format=c(dates="Y/m/d", times="H:M:S")) so I have the dates being displayed as (10/06/22 12:00:00) I would like to have them displayed as "2010-06-22 12:00:00" or "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S" and then I can convert these for mergeing with another data frame x <- (structure(c(14464, 14464.0104166667,

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

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.

Hello, I have questions while reviewing "chron" package(e.g.,chron.R). 1. What is the differences between 3 kinds of function definition ? 1) "name" &lt;- function(... 2) 'name' &lt;- function(... 3) name &lt;- function(... Do you know Why author used various kinds of definitions ? Is there no functional differences between them ? 2. I

Hello there, Using R 2.4.0 on Solaris (Unix): I am trying to control the X axis range on a simple time of day plot. I made a test program (below) that gets file time stamp information from the files in the directory where R starts. The goal of the test program is to plot the time of day of file creation on an x axis that spans a user-specified range (like 12:00:00 to 15:00:00). If I allow

Hi, One of the big decisions when writing code is how to handle dates and times. Gabor Grothendieck provided an excellent overview of the issue in his R News 4/1 (2004) article, and many users and developers are probably using it as a guide. The proposed guideline is to use the simplest class required; as Gabor put it "use Date if possible, otherwise use chron, and otherwise use
