Hi Jeff, My question is not related with SQL. I have all the data available in a csv file. I am looking for R algorithm where can specify a time period and then R essentially uses this time period as a sliding window for all the event-time stamps and gives a significant distribution of occurrences in this dynamic time window. Hope that further clarified my question. and yes thanks for suggesting roll.apply() from zoo package , let me take a look.
Also let me know if there are any other alternative suggestions.
