Dear list, I tried to find a solution for this problem from the archives but couldn't find any. I would like sample sequence of ten days from vector d d <- seq(as.Date("2007-02-12"), as.Date("2008-08-18"), by="days") so that the days follow each other (sample(d, 10) is not the appropriate solution). Any ideas? Best regards, Lauri
