A quick question
x <- as.yearmon(2000 + seq(0, 23)/12)
x
[1] "Jan 2000" "Feb 2000" "Mar 2000" "Apr 2000" "May 2000" "Jun 2000" "Jul
2000" "Aug 2000" "Sep 2000" "Oct 2000" "Nov 2000" "Dec 2000" "Jan 2001"
[14] "Feb 2001" "Mar 2001" "Apr 2001" "May 2001" "Jun 2001" "Jul 2001" "Aug
2001" "Sep 2001" "Oct 2001" "Nov 2001" "Dec 2001"
data<-seq(1,24,by=1)
testzoo<-zoo(data,order.by=x)
The operation I ant to perform on the zoo series is this. I will illustrate
with a small example and formula:
the coredata of the zoo series is 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 )
I want to calculate Result<- zoo[x]-zoo[x-1] (NA,1,1,1,1,1...NA)
The first element of course is undefined(NA). is there any method to do this
elegantly, padding NAs at the
start works but its ugly. if I get a simple function I can apply it to a
matrix of zoo series
