Hi,
I have a vector that looks like this;
(imported from another file)
dates <- c("Tue Sep 17 2013 16:25:17", "Wed Sep 18 2013 16:35:17", "Thu Sep 19
2013 16:55:17")
now I need a data frame with two columns;
date time
2013.09.17 16:25:17
2013.09.18 16:35:17
…
I first started with functions like strsplit to do string manipulations.
But since I have to do this for multiple files with different native
date-formats, probably there is a more general way to deal with dates and time
formats in R.
How can I make R recognize that the dates vector does not contain strings but a
dates in a specific format?
And then how can use this to create the mentioned data-frame?
thanks for any suggestions!
