Hi, I'm working with objects of classes "Date","POSIXlt" and "POSIXct" and still having some Date/Time-related concepts unclear. In the documentation of "as.Date" one can find: "The 'as.Date' methods accept ... '"POSIXlt"' and '"POSIXct"'. (The last are converted to days by ignoring the time after

Full_Name: Arni Magnusson Version: 1.6.2 OS: Windows XP Submission from: (NULL) (210.48.49.68) Hi there. I'm experiencing unexpected behaviour from as.POSIXct: > as.POSIXct("1969-12-24") [1] "1969-12-23 23:00:00 New Zealand Standard Time" > as.POSIXlt("1969-12-24") [1] "1969-12-24" > as.POSIXlt("1969-12-24")+1 [1] "1969-12-23

When I try to do linear interpolation between financial contracts with maturities on different dates in different months I have come across some behavior I haven't seen before. I have a data frame in R which is loaded from an access database so I can't provide a working example. It was loaded using this code: > dbPath <- "H:/pathToDB/DB.mdb" > channel <-

Hello, the documentation for POSIXct and POSIXlt refers to the timezone keyword as "TZ". The functions expect "tz". BTW, is this where errors/ bugs should be reported? Cheers, Mike. ===== __________________________________________________ Yahoo! Platinum - Watch CBS' NCAA March Madness, live on your desktop!

The following code: cut(as.POSIXct("2009-11-01 04:00:00", tz="America/Los_Angeles"), "1 day") gives the error: Error in seq.int(0, to - from, by) : 'to' must be finite This is related to November 1st, 2009 being the switchover date from daylight savings time to standard time in the America/Los_Angeles time zone. In particular, in cut.POSIXt, the starting

Have you noticed any problems with big dates (>=1/1/2040) in R? Here is the bit of code that I'm having trouble with: > test.date <- strptime("1/1/2040",format="%m/%d/%Y") > > unlist(test.date) sec min hour mday mon year wday yday isdst 0 0 0 1 0 140 0 0 0 > > date.plus.one <- as.POSIXct(test.date) +

Dear R-helpers, I have a problem converting an object made with the 'chron' function to a POSIXct object: # Make date based on DOY dat <- chron(dates=232, origin.=c(month=1, day=1, year=2008)) dat #[1] 08/20/08 # Converting to POSIXct uses current timezone (Sydney): as.POSIXct(dat) #[1] "2008-08-20 10:00:00 EST" # Setting GMT timezone has no effect? as.POSIXct(dat,

Full_Name: Erich Neuwirth Version: 2.3.1 OS: Windows XP, Linux Submission from: (NULL) (131.130.135.167) Converting Sys.Date() to a POSIX compliant time type in different ways produces inconsistent results: > Sys.date() [1] "2006-09-01" > as.POSIXct(Sys.Date()) [1] "2006-09-01 02:00:00 CEST" > as.POSIXlt(Sys.Date()) [1] "2006-09-01" >

In trying to use as.Date(), I've come across the conversion of POSIXlt to POSIXct when a POSIXlt variable is included in a data frame: my_POSIX <- strptime(c("11-09-2006", "11-10-2006", "11-11-2006", "11-12-2006", "11-13-2006"), "%m-%d-%Y") str(my_POSIX) my_Date <- as.Date(my_POSIX) str(my_Date) data <- format(my_Date)

Dear all, I have a question related to the POSIXlt function in R. I have a set of dates and times, for exmaple: startx <- as.POSIXct("2011-01-01 00:00:00") finx <- as.POSIXct("2011-12-31 00:00:00") daysx<- seq(startx, finx, by="24 hours") I want to change the dates of all the days falling on a Saturday to the next working day (i.e. Monday). So I

Hello, I searched the archives but could not come to a solution. I have to two columns of information t_start_cdt looks like: > t_start_cdt[1:4] [1] "2003-07-09 11:02:25" "2003-07-09 11:10:25" "2003-07-09 11:30:25" [4] "2003-07-09 12:00:25" > class(t_start_cdt) [1] "POSIXt" "POSIXlt" t_end_cdt looks like: > t_end_cdt[1:4]

Dear R users, Given this data: x <- seq(1,100,1) dx <- as.POSIXct(x*900, origin="2007-06-01 00:00:00") dfx <- data.frame(dx) Now to play around for example: subset(dfx, dx > as.POSIXct("2007-06-01 16:00:00")) Ok. Now for some reason I want to extract the datapoints between hours 10:00:00 and 14:00:00, so I thought well: subset(dfx, dx >

Dear list: working with date/times I have come across a problem that ISOdate and ISOdatetime are too slow on large vectors of data. I was surprised just until I looked at the implementation and the man page: "ISOdatetime and ISOdate are convenience wrappers for strptime". In other terms, they convert data to character representation first in order to create a POSIXlt object that is then

In attempting to build R using rpmbuild --rebuild R-2.1.0-0.fdr.2.fc3.src.rpm on a fairly up-to-date RedHat 9 system (that is, with patches installed through May 1 2004), it failed at the make check-all step. The problem was reproducible by going into the tests directory and make test-Segfault The last lines of the saved file no-segfault.Rout.fail are > > ## c.POSIXct : > >

R 2.6.1 on a Thinkpad T60 running up-to-date Gentoo: Despite the documentation, which says: 'strftime' is an alias for 'format.POSIXlt', and 'format.POSIXct' first converts to class '"POSIXlt"' by calling 'as.POSIXlt'. Note that only that conversion depends on the time zone. strftime fails on POSIXct objects: > foo <-

I've found several similar issues with write.table/read.table with Dates on this list, but trying to follow this advice I still get an error. First, I read in data from several files, constructing several date/time columns using ISOdatetime > str(Tall$Begin) 'POSIXct', format: chr [1:40114] "2005-10-02 00:00:00" "2005-10-02 00:00:00" ... > length(Tall$Begin)

Dear all, As of the current R alpha release, I'm seeing timezone-related warnings on installing any package (including the recommended ones), which I haven't seen before. For example, [~/Documents/Source/R-alpha]$ bin/R CMD INSTALL ~/git/tractor/lib/reportr * installing to library '/Users/jon/Documents/Source/R-alpha/library' * installing *source* package 'reportr' ...
