Hello there fellow R-users, I have received some data which comes in the following format:
example1<-"200301" The first 4 digits correspond to the year and the remaining 2 digits correspond to the week of the year. I have tried to convert this to a date by using strptime as follows: strptime(example1,format="%Y%U") where U (looking up strptime) is the week of the year but it always returns NA. ANy help in successfully converting this string format to a date would be much appreciated Regards Wayne Dr Wayne R.
