Hi Folks!
I'm struggling with dates - but enough about my personal life.....
I have two daily time series files. In one (x) the date format is Y/m/d
and the other (y) is d/m/y. I used read.zoo on both and they read into
R with no problem.
Then I use: weekdays(as.Date(x$DATE)) and get what I expect - all the
days of the week in my data set.
When I use: weekdays(as.Date(y$Date)) I get:
Error in fromchar(x) : character string is not in a standard unambiguous
format
I've tried to set the format= in read.zoo to format="%d/%m/%Y" but this
doesn't seem to solve the problem.
What's going on here? (I'm new to these dates functions, so please be
patient - I'll get the hang out of soon!)
Best,
John
