 

Hi Experts,

 

I have a problem in Dates.

 

I have a zoo object called 'intra'. And the class of index(intra) is
("Chron" "Dates" "Time"). I need to put the index of this zoo object
into a data frame. So I used, 

 

idat<-data.frame(Datetime=as.POSIXlt(index(intra),"GMT"))  

 

 

But I get the values of 'idat' to be:

 

"01joulu2006 09:59:59"

"01joulu2006 10:09:59"

"01joulu2006 10:19:59"

"01joulu2006 10:30:00"

"01joulu2006 10:40:00"

"01joulu2006 10:50:00"

 

 

But I need the 'idat' format to be:

 

2006-12-01 13:30:00

2006-12-01 13:40:00

2006-12-01 13:50:00

2006-12-01 14:00:00

2006-12-01 14:10:00

2006-12-01 14:19:59

2006-12-01 14:29:59

 

 

i.e., instead of joulu (The finnish version of December) I need to get
in the number format. How do I do this? Do I need to change the OS date
format?

 

Because I read a documentation which says "Unfortunately, the
documentation of POSIXt objects is Operating system dependent and
especially under MS Windows several problems appear in the management of
time zones and day light saving times" (Source: R Documentation,
timeDate Class). Thought this may help you...

 

Thank you,

Shubha.
