Hello! I'd like to take Dates and extract from them months and years - but so that it sorts correctly. For example:
x1<-seq(as.Date("2009-01-01"), length = 14, by = "month") (x1) order(x1) # produces correct order based on full dates # Of course, I could do "format" - but this way I am losing the "Date" quality of the data: x2<-format(x1,"%Y.%m") (x2) order(x2) Not sure it's possible at all: But is there some other way to extract just months and years from Dates (while ingoring days) - but so that it's still somehow a Date object? Thank you very much! -- Dimitri Liakhovitski Ninah Consulting www.ninah.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.
