Hello
In the variable x.sub$Time i have the many dates in format 2006-10-31
20:10:35 EST, for example when
print (x.sub$Time) give this
[1] "2006-10-31 20:10:35 EST" "2006-10-31 20:11:08 EST" "2006-10-31 20:11:21
EST" "2006-10-31 20:12:16 EST"
[5] "2006-10-31 20:13:20 EST" "2006-10-31 20:13:28 EST" "2006-10-31
20:15:18 EST" "2006-10-31 20:16:06 EST"
but when put in variable start the result in first position with code
sart<-x.sub$Time[[1]], my goal by this code is save the
result [1] "2006-10-31 20:10:35 EST".
The problem is the variable start give me "[1] 35 8 21 16 20 28 18 6
40 17 52 15 13 12 23 10 39 40" when the goal is is to keep the original
format 2006-10-31 20:10:35 EST.
Which I doubt was the original format, rather the way it is formatted
for printing.
How solve this problem.
By following the posting guide ... without the information we asked
for, we can only guess.
So here's a guess: x.sub$Time is an object of class POSIXlt, and you
used [[1]] when you meant [1] .
