Thank you everyone for the attempt to solve the problem
It is an irregular series and insert NAs when a date is missing
> library(zoo)
> z <- zoo(last$r_wvht, order.by=last$date)
> plot(z)
Error in plot.window(...) : need finite 'xlim' values
In addition: Warning messages:
1: In xy.coords(x, y, xlabel, ylabel, log) : NAs introduced by coercion
2: In min(x) : no non-missing arguments to min; returning Inf
3: In max(x) : no non-missing arguments to max; returning -Inf

I have also tried

> z <- read.zoo("plot1.csv", header = TRUE, sep = ",", format = "%m/%d/%Y")
> plot(z)
The plot does not look good. It does not display the individual dates.
