Hello Ali,
It looks to me like you have two questions: 1) the error you get from
scatterplot3d 2) how to calculate the monthly mean.
If you could provide some sample data that would make it a lot easier
to help you understand why the error occurred and what to do about it.
For now, maybe this will get you started on calculating the monthly
mean.
# Create a data frame with the data in 'x' and the dates in 'y'
sampdat <- data.frame(x = 1:365, y = Sys.Date() + 1:365)
# convert 'y' to a factor by cut()ing the dates by month
sampdat$y <- cut.Date(x = sampdat$y, breaks = "month",
include.lowest = TRUE, right = TRUE)
# now just find the mean of 'x' for each level of 'y'
by(data = sampdat$x, INDICES = sampdat$y, FUN = mean)
# For some documentation
?Date
?cut.Date #cut() will call the right method, but I wanted to be explicit
?by
Cheers,
Josh
