I am having a hell of a time, this must surely be simple to solveā¦. Basically I want to add trailing dates to datasets with differing starting dates so that across datasets I have the same starting date.
# make dataset with the same starting date start_date = as.Date("2020-03-01") d_start_date = min(agg_d_h$Group.date) diff_in_days = as.numeric(difftime(d_start_date, start_date, units = "days")) for(i in 1:diff_in_days) { next_date = start_date+i app_d <- rbind(agg_d_h, c(next_date, 0) ) } gives: Error in as.Date.numeric(value) : 'origin' must be supplied Thank you for your time to help me!
