Dear all, I'm totally new to R. Recently I've been trying to use getYahooData in TTR package in order to download stock index daily open/high/low/close. The downloaded data is in the format of
Open High Low Close Volume 2000-01-04 18937.45 19187.61 18937.45 19002.86 0 2000-01-05 19003.51 19003.51 18221.82 18542.55 0 2000-01-06 18574.01 18582.74 18168.27 18168.27 0 2000-01-07 18194.05 18285.73 18068.10 18193.41 0 2000-01-11 18246.10 18887.56 18246.10 18850.92 0 2000-01-12 18780.17 18811.87 18626.92 18677.42 0 2000-01-13 18667.18 18845.03 18667.18 18833.29 0 2000-01-14 18882.99 19058.02 18733.83 18956.55 0 2000-01-17 19025.62 19442.58 19025.62 19437.23 0 2000-01-18 19412.47 19412.47 19145.17 19196.57 0 However, when I attempted to write the data to excel using write.table, dates in the first colume become 1,2,3,4 in the excel file. Same problem happened if write.csv was used. If you run these two lines of code you'll get what I meant.. before running the code, package TTR needs to be loaded. >N225 <- getYahooData("^N225", 20000101, ) >write.table(N225,"Nikkei.xls",sep='\t', row.name = TRUE , col.name = NA) Appreciate your kind assistance! Thanks a lot in advance. -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Help-needed-for-getYahooData-in-TTR-package-writing-the-Yahoo-data-to-excel-tp2970017p2970017.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.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.
