Hi, I have a rather large data frame (500 x 5000) that I want to convert to a proper xts object.
I am able to properly generate an xts object with the correct time index. However, all of my numerical values are now strings. b <- as.xts(a[,2:dim(a)[2]], order.by=as.POSIXct(strptime(paste(a$Date), '%m/%d/%Y'))) My guess is that somewhere in the large data frame there are a few strings hiding that is causing the who thong to be converted to string. Is there some way to force the as.xts function to ignore the strings and keep everything numeric?
