Hello,
I posted this in the regular r-help list, but it may be more appropriate
here. Sorry about the double posting!
I am trying to import data from an SQLite database to R.
Unfortunately, I seem to get wrong data when I try to import very large
numbers.
For example:
I look at the database via SQLiteStudio(v.1.1.3) and I see the following
values:
OrderID Day TimeToclose
1 2009-11-25 29467907000
2 2009-11-25 29467907000
3 2009-11-25 29467907000
Now I run this R Code:
> library("DBI")
> library("RSQLite")
>
> # DB Connection
> con <- dbConnect(dbDriver("SQLite"), "C:/Temp/TickDB01.db")
> raw_Data <- dbGetQuery(con, "SELECT OrderID, Day, TimeToClose FROM
Tr_TickData WHERE OrderID in (1,2,3)")
> raw_Data
OrderID Day TimeToClose
1 1 2009-11-25 -596864072
2 2 2009-11-25 -596864072
3 3 2009-11-25 -596864072
The values are totally wrong... Is it because RSQLite has a problem with
big numbers?
TimeToClose is microseconds till 17:00.
When I make the numbers smaller, it works again:
> raw_Data <- dbGetQuery(con, "SELECT TimeToClose/1000 as TTC FROM
Tr_TickData WHERE OrderID in (1,2,3)")
> raw_Data
TTC
1 29467907
2 29467907
3 29467907
I would appreciate any help with this problem!
Thanks and regards,
Sebastian
