在上面的示例中,如何将D[,1]
中的数据读取并存储为日期值:2010-03-16,2010-03-17,2010-03-18?我有很多这种格式的数据文件。
TIA,

dx = "20100316 20100317 20100318"
# if your dates already exists as individual items of mode "character"
# then obviously, skip this step
dx2 = unlist(strsplit(dx, split=" "))
fnx = function(x){as.Date(x, format="%Y%m%d")}
dx3 = fnx(dx2)
dx3
# returns: [1] "2010-03-16" "2010-03-17" "2010-03-18"
class(dx3)
# returns: [1] "Date"
