Dear R-list users,

I've got problems to use the function aggregate.


Here there is an example:


mydf <- data.frame(Data=seq(as.POSIXct("2003-01-01", format = "%Y-%m-%d", 
tz="Etc/GMT-1"), as.POSIXct("2023-12-31", format = "%Y-%m-%d", tz="Etc/GMT-1"), 
by="1 day"), daily_mean = round(runif(7670, 0, 2), digits=2))

mydf$yearly_sum <- unlist(aggregate(daily_mean~as.integer(format(mydf$Data, 
"%Y")), data=mydf, cumsum)[2], use.names = FALSE)


The column "yearly_sum" is the sum of the column "daily_mean" with a reset at 
the beginning of each year.

If for my analysis I want to remove the 29th of February, "yearly_sum" does not 
work anymore:


mydf1 <- data.frame(Data=seq(as.POSIXct("2003-01-01", format = "%Y-%m-%d", 
tz="Etc/GMT-1"), as.POSIXct("2023-12-31", format = "%Y-%m-%d", tz="Etc/GMT-1"), 
by="1 day"), daily_mean = round(runif(7670, 0, 2), digits=2))

mydf1 <- mydf1[format(mydf1$Data, "%m-%d") != "02-29", ]

mydf1$yearly_sum <- unlist(aggregate(daily_mean~as.integer(format(mydf1$Data, 
"%Y")), data=mydf1, cumsum)[2], use.names = FALSE)


In this case the column "yearly_sum" does not sum the values, and honestly I do 
not understand what is happening. Why?

Could somebody help me? I already spent a big amount of hours with no success.


Thank you for your attention and you help

Stefano
