Re: [R] Time series: xts/zoo object at annual (yearly) frequency

[Gabor Grothendieck]

Maybe one of these are close enough:

  xts(c(2, 4, 5), yearqtr(1991:1993))

  as.xts(ts(c(2, 4, 5), 1991))

of if you want only a plain year as the index then then use zoo,
zooreg or ts class:

  library(zoo)
  zoo(c(2, 4, 5), 1991:1993)

  zooreg(c(2, 4, 5), 1991)

  ts(c(2, 4, 5), 1991)

Re: [R] Time series: xts/zoo object at annual (yearly) frequency

[Eric Berger]

Hi John,
Here's one way to do it:
vec <- c(2,4,5)
yrs <- seq(from=as.Date("1991-01-01"),by="1 year",length=length(vec))
a <-  xts(x=vec, order.by=yrs)

HTH,
Eric

[R] Time series: xts/zoo object at annual (yearly) frequency

[John]

Hi,

   I'd like to make a time series at an annual frequency.

> a<-xts(x=c(2,4,5), order.by=c("1991","1992","1993"))
Error in xts(x = c(2, 4, 5), order.by = c("1991", "1992", "1993")) :
  order.by requires an appropriate time-based object
> a<-xts(x=c(2,4,5), order.by=1991:1993)
Error in xts(x = c(2, 4, 5), order.by = 1991:1993) :
  order.by requires an appropriate time-based object

  How should I do it? I know that to do for quarterly or monthly time
series, we use as.yearqtr or as.yearmon. What about annual?

   Thanks,

John
