I am trying to get the current price of gold for my application. I am using the library quantmod. The R commands I use are: getMetals(c('XAU'), from=Sys.Date(), autoassign = FALSE ) XAUUSD$XAU.USD[1,1]
I would expect the value in XAUUSD$XAU.USD[1,1] to be a scalar but it comes back with a date and a number. All I want is the current value, not today's date. How do I just get the value?
