Thanks to all who responded.
I like Sarah's solution best, although it did provide only a clue. It just
needed a little of tweak to finish with suitable solution. For the record I put
here this tweak (it is not fully reproducible but I hope it is understandable
and can help others too).
# make a plot
plot(prov$date, prov$fi>0)
# interactively identify starts and ends of some events
mimo <- identify(prov$datum, prov$fi>0)
# make x as a auxiliary variable
x <- 1:nrow(prov)
# factor of events
event <- cut(x, c(liche(mimo)-1, sude(mimo)))
# discard even events
levels(event)[levels(event)%in%sude(levels(event))]<-NA
Here I could change remaining levels to any sequence.
Functions sude and liche are for selecting even and odd values from vector.
> sude
function (x)
{
indices <- seq(along = x)
x[indices%%2 == 0]
}
> liche
function (x)
{
indices <- seq(along = x)
x[indices%%2 == 1]
}
Thanks again to all who helped me.
Best regards
Petr
