Hi all, Is there a built in or easier way to work with dates that are *just* Year-Month? Right now I paste() on a day as a work around, but it ultimately needs to be in Year-Month form, so then I use format() to get rid of the day.
x <- c("2006-December", "2006-July") x <- paste(x, "-01", sep='') x <- as.Date(x, "%Y-%B-%d") x <- sort(x) x <- format(x, format = "%Y-%B") > x [1] "2006-July" "2006-December" Thanks, Josh -- Joshua Wiley Ph.D. Student, Health Psychology University of California, Los Angeles http://www.joshuawiley.com/ ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
