similar to: library(fCalendar) timeDate("12.03.2005",format="%d.%m.%Y")

Hello, Sorry if anyone gets this message twice, as my mailserver may not be working. Thanks for your response. Your idea makes a lot of sense to me, but I've been unable to get seconds to work. I ended up with this format finally: "2007-10-31_16:20:22" Problem is I am unable to get it recognized as a date using timeDate(): R>

Hello: I am trying to use fCalendar for date arithmetic and the RMySQL package for accessing a MySQL database. The fCalendar math operations seem to work fine UNTIL I load the RMySQL package.

Dear, I'm a master student mathematics at university Gent, who's writing a thesis about vines and copula's. I'm in trouble with the package 'fCalendar' which I need for running 'QRMlib'. The problem is that 'fCalendar' doesn't have a namespace. I need to use R.2.14.1 because I also need the package 'vines' which only works for R.2.14.1. I'm

I am using the following command from the Fcalendar Package : x = timeSequence("1992-12-31","1994-12-31") and then y = as.character(x) is a vector of character strings "[1] 1992-12-31" "1993-01-31" "1993-03-03" "1993-03-31" "1993-05-01" etc This is very close to what I need and thank you very much to whomever wrote

Dear R users, I have a dataframe where column is has countries, column 2 is dates (monthly) for each countrly, the next 10 columns are my factors where I have measurements for each country and for each date. I have attached a sample of the data in csv format with the data for 3 countries. I would like to convert my monthly data into quarterly data, finding the mean over 3 month periods for

For a model I am working on, I have samples organized by year and week of the year. For this model, the data (year and week) comes from the basic sample data, but I require a value representing the amount of time since the sample was taken (actually, for the purpose of the model, it is sufficient to use the number of weeks from the middle of the sample week to the present). What I have found so

Hi folks, Suppose I create the character vector charvec by > charvec<-c("a1.b1","a2.b2") > charvec [1] "a1.b1" "a2.b2" and then I use strsplit on charvec as follows: > splitlist<-strsplit(charvec,split=".",fixed=TRUE) > splitlist [[1]] [1] "a1" "b1" [[2]] [1] "a2" "b2" I was wondering

Hi All : I am attempting tomove a large amount of code from Splus to R and I was hoping that there was an equivalent in R of the Splus functions timeSeq and timeDate ? I did an RSiteSearch but nothing came up ? If the equivalent functions are part of some package, that's fine. Thanks a lot. Mark

There is a function in the fCalendar package called xts.dvs but I m unable to see the code inside the function. Is this common with functions in the fCalendar package or maybe there is something else that I have to do first or use the colon colon command in some manner I want to see the function coee because I want to see the detials Of the algorithm used in the function. I am on linux and my

I wasn't even aware I was using midnightStandard. You won't find it in my script. Here is the relevant loop: date1 = timeDate(charvec = Sys.Date(), format = "%Y-%m-%d") date1 dow = 3; for (i in 1:length(V4) ) { x = read.csv(as.character(V4[[i]]), header = FALSE, na.strings=""); y = x[,1]; year = V2[[i]]; week = V3[[i]]; dtstr =

is there a straigthforward way to get the holidays for Toronto ? like the function for NYSE e.g. the timeDate class says that setting a finCenter will give the right holidays, but how? thank you very much. stephen

Hi folks. This set of code used to work, but after upgrading to the latest version of Rmetrics it no longer does. Any ideas?

I have a problem wirh R: After loding fBasics packages log funtion doesn't work like as fallow: Cenap ERDEMIR Hacettepe University Turkey > log(20) [1] 2.995732 > local({pkg <- select.list(sort(.packages(all.available = TRUE))) + if(nchar(pkg)) library(pkg, character.only=TRUE)}) Loading required package: fImport Loading required package: fSeries Loading required package: robustbase

Is there a way to convince R to create a character vector without using the quotes? This works ex1 <- c("first","second") but when I try this it doesn't ext <- as.character(c(first,second)) it complains. I have many variables to put into character vectors so dispensing with the quotes would be useful. Thanks Jim =============================== Dr. Jim Maas

>From NEWS of R v2.6.0 devel: o R CMD check now does a recursive copy on the 'tests' directory. However, R CMD check does not run *.R scripts in such subdirectories (as I thought/hoped for), only those directly under tests/, This may or may not be intentional. If true, maybe the above should be clarified as: o R CMD check now does a recursive copy on the 'tests' directory

Hi R, Please see the below commands. The question is I can see the value of log(2) before loading the package fcalendar in R. But after loading the package, the 'log' function doesn't work. How to solve this problem? Also note that the function code differs before and after downloading the packages. > log function (x, base = exp(1)) .Primitive("log") >

Hi guys, I am logging data about my body (weight, body fat, blood pressure, ..) in a .csv file and would like to plot this as a time series. I uploaded the (noisified) .csv, you can see the link in the code I have so far (you can run the code directly as-is): df.raw <- read.csv("http://www.chaotic-neutral.de/temp/stats-noised.csv", sep=";", dec=".")

Helo, please look at the log below: after loading the fSeries library, I can not use the log function. Is this a bug or what am I doing wrong? Because of this, I'm unable to use the garch library. thanks a lot for any help, Balazs Torma > log(1) [1] 0 > require("fSeries") Loading required package: fSeries Loading required package: robustbase Loading required package:
