Dear R-core people
This is first time I try to send you some suggestion so I hope I use
the correct address (and sorry if my english is not optimal:-).
cut.POSIX help page says in arguments section:
right, ... arguments to be passed to or from other methods.
which, if I did not encounter following behaviour earlier and did
not get an answer from r-help, would not help me very much in
tracking how I can rid of NA from result
> cut(datum[1:5],"day", right=T, include.lowest=T)
[1] 2004-12-06 2004-12-07 2004-12-09 2004-12-12 2004-12-14
> cut(datum[1:5],"day", right=T)
[1] <NA> 2004-12-07 2004-12-09 2004-12-12 2004-12-14
> cut(datum[1:5],"day")
[1] 2004-12-06 2004-12-08 2004-12-10 2004-12-13 <NA>
I would recommend to add something like:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Using both right = TRUE and include.lowest = TRUE will include
both ends of your dates range.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
