Try help("strptime"). Example strptime(1080103L + 19e6L, "%Y%m%d") # [1] "2008-01-03" (This assumes your input is an integer but you can just drop the L if you want) On 04/07/09 19:37, Mark Knecht wrote: > Hi, > Is there a function that will convert this sort of date code which > looks li

[R] Date code conversion

2009-07-04 Thread Mark Knecht
Hi, Is there a function that will convert this sort of date code which looks like "years from 1900 + month_number + day_number" with no spaces? As an example Jan. 3rd 2008 would be written as 1080103. Thanks, Mark __ R-help@r-project.org mailing list
