[R] Structural break test Andrews (2003)

Dear Friends, I am looking for an R version of the structural break test in Andrews (2003). The excellent strucchange package does not include this test (yet?). Is this test available in another package? If not, might there already be a function written to do this test? Thank you very much.

Re: [R] days between dates

Thank you for the email. The data is unbalanced, meaning that some days are missing. So the sequence of days could be something like Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, Monday. The diff function would produce 1, 2, 3. But I would like it to produce 1, 2, 1 since there is really only 1 day between
