I'm getting a weird behavior using R 2.5.0 for MacOS X -- I have a csv file with a "properly formatted" date/time field, e.g. After reading in the csv to "hourly_met_data", with a "date" field hourly_met_data$date <- as.POSIXct(hourly_met_data$date) works exactly as it is supposed to (e.g. Min/max of that field are calculated correctly). However, when I

Hello everybody, I'm trying to predict a linear regression model but it does not work. My Model: y = Worktime + Vacation + Illnes + Bankholidays My modelmatrix is of dimension 28x4 Then I want to make use of the function predict because there confidence.intervals are include. My idea was: mod <- lm(y~Worktime+Vacation+Illnes+Bankholidays) newdate=data.frame(x=c(324,123,0.9,0.1))

Hey all, My site is working ok except for a page that displays as text instead of html. I tried to use this: puts "Content-Type: text/html" then it display the page as html normally but I still get that ugly part on top of my page: Content-Type: text/html Set-Cookie: _session_id=6356b18a24d56a0da01bfab791fa911d; path=/ Status: 200 OK Cache-Control: no-cache here is the url:

Is this what you are after? library(tidyverse) library(lubridate) input <- structure(list(StationName = c("PALO ALTO CA / CAMBRIDGE #1", "PALO ALTO CA / CAMBRIDGE #1", "PALO ALTO CA / CAMBRIDGE #1", "PALO ALTO CA / CAMBRIDGE #1", "PALO ALTO CA / CAMBRIDGE #1", "PALO ALTO CA / CAMBRIDGE #1", "PALO ALTO CA / CAMBRIDGE

Hi group, suppose I have a date, say May 15 2004, and I want to now what date it is 23 days before that date. The way to calculate the new date should (...) take account of leap years :) In pseudocode: olddate <- "May 15 2004" newdate <- olddate-23 I looked around in POSIXct etc..., maybe I overlooked? Thanks, Maarten

hi, I don't know what I am doing wrong, but with that code; x1 <- c(1.60, 0.27, 0.17, 1.63, 1.37, 2.00, 0.90, 1.07, 0.89, 0.43, 0.37, 0.59, 0.47, 1.83, 1.79, 0.90, 0.72, 1.83, 0.23, 1.97, 2.03, 2.19, 2.03, 0.86) x2 <- c(1.30, 0.24, 0.20, 0.50, 1.33, 1.87, 1.30, 0.75, 1.07, 0.43, 0.37, 0.87, 1.40, 1.37, 1.63, 0.80, 0.57, 1.60, 0.39, 2.03, 1.90, 2.07, 1.93, 0.93) model <-

Hi guys, I''m trying to make an AR model which accepts a string data (from a text input) in euro date format eg <input .... value = "23/01/2006"> ( 23 Jan 2006) Reading the example from RDoc... i tried to overwrite/overload/override the = function to write in the date.. Cant get it to work because .. i dont knoe what format should it accept.. i''ve tried

Dear Listers, Apologize to pile up on the 'tz' issue in POSIX objects. I have a 'simple' thing on which I must make up my mind but cannot do it from the existing R-help threads. I am currently working on dog telemetry in China, and download time information from GPS collars. I would like to set up the corresponding POSIXxx variables in R to a given time zone. Eg Pekin

Hello! my data set has many variables. Unfortuantely, many of those variables contain spaces in their names. I need advice on: how to refer to variable names in the formula for "aggregate". See example below: ### Generating example data set: mydate = rep(seq(as.Date("2008-12-01"), length = 3, by = "month"),4) value1=c(1,10,100,2,20,200,3,30,300,4,40,400)

Hi all, this one left me a bit puzzled, as I don't seem to find a function to perform this easily. I must have overlooked the obvious, so sorry in advance. I have a list of dates in numerical format (i.e. 34576), defined as the number of days that passed since january 1st 1900. So I apply the function : > MyDate <-as.Date(34576,origin="1900-01-01") > MyDate [1]

Hello! I am aggregating using a formula in aggregate - of the type: aggregate(cbind(var1,var2,var3)~factor1+factor2,sum,data=mydata) However, I actually have an object (vector of my variables to be aggregated): myvars<-c("var1","var2","var3") I'd like my aggregate formula (its "cbind" part) to be able to use my "myvars" object. Is it

I would like to use POSIX classes to store dates and extract components of dates. Following the example in Spector ("Data Manipulation in R"), I create a date > mydate = as. POSIXlt('2005-4-19 7:01:00') I then successfully extract the day with the command > mydate$day [1] 19 But when I try to extract the month > mydate$mon [1] 3 it returns the wrong month. And

hello, I got a problem with plotting large time series, since I want to store the results in a .PDF file (I want to store several pages of plots). The PDF files get too large to be handled (> 10MB, one was even 200MB big). So I wonder, if there would be a possibilty to either - reduce the file size of the PDF - change the way the plot is generated to reduce the plot size? I use:

Dear all, I would like to know the month on a string formatted as "2004-01", using as.Date (not just stripping the string !) ?as.Date says that in case of an incomplete input string, the answer is system-specific. The following has been tested on R 2.4.1, on Ubuntu Linux and WinXP. > mydate <- "2004-01" > as.Date(mydate) Error in fromchar(x) : character string is

Hello! I have my data frame "mydata" (below) and data frame "reference" - that contains all the dates I would like to be present in the final data frame. I am trying to merge them so that the the result data frame contains all 8 dates in both subgroups (i.e., Group1 should have 8 rows and Group2 too). But when I merge it it's not coming out this way. Any hint would be

Dear R-users, suppose I have three dataframes like these df1: mydate min_temp 31032013 12 01042013 8 02042013 -999 df2: mydate min_temp 31032013 10 01042013 11 02042013 14 df3: mydate min_temp 31032013 4 01042013 3 02042013 5 where -999 means that the temperature data is not available (at the moment I cannot change it to NA because I am not the db administrator); suppose also that oggi is

Hello! I have a data frame with dates. I need to create a new "month" that starts on the 20th of each month - because I'll need to aggregate my data later by that "shifted" month. I wrote the code below and it works. However, I was wondering if there is some ready-made function in some package - that makes it easier/more elegant? Thanks a lot! # Example data:

Hi, I wonder if someone can suggest how to create a new data.frame Y from X where X$PL_Pos is summed by each unique X$MyDate. Y should end up with two (or more) columns Y$MyDate and Y$PL_Sum with its value being the cumsum of all the values in X for that date. - a 'daily cumsum'. Thanks, Mark TStoDate = function (TSDate) { X = strptime(TSDate + 19e6L, "%Y%m%d")

Hi, I have a data.frame SAMPLES with columns: Site Site# Season Day1 Day2 Day3 Day1, Day2, Day3 are class "Date", the other columns are numeric or factor. I have a date "mydate" that may or may not be listed in my data.frame and I need to find that out. If "mydate" is there, I want to get the number of the data.frame row where it occurs.
