I’m attempting to replace a string variable that normally works fine. However when trying to do this with a string in the form of a date the output becomes corrupted.
See below: BHC <-BHC %>% mutate ( Date = stringr :: str_replace ( Date , "M_1" , "01-03-2017")) BHC <-BHC %>% mutate ( Date = stringr :: str_replace ( Date , "M_2" , "01-04-2017")) BHC <-BHC %>% mutate ( Date = stringr :: str_replace ( Date , "M_3" , "01-05-2017")) BHC <-BHC %>% mutate ( Date = stringr :: str_replace ( Date , "M_4" , "01-06-2017")) BHC <-BHC %>% mutate ( Date = stringr :: str_replace ( Date , "M_5" , "01-07-2017")) BHC <-BHC %>% mutate ( Date = stringr :: str_replace ( Date , "M_6" , "01-08-2017")) BHC <-BHC %>% mutate ( Date = stringr :: str_replace ( Date , "M_7" , "01-09-2017")) BHC <-BHC %>% mutate ( Date = stringr :: str_replace ( Date , "M_8" , "01-10-2017")) BHC <-BHC %>% mutate ( Date = stringr :: str_replace ( Date , "M_9" , "01-11-2017")) BHC <-BHC %>% mutate ( Date = stringr :: str_replace ( Date , "M_10" , "01-12-2017")) BHC <-BHC %>% mutate ( Date = stringr :: str_replace ( Date , "M_11" , "01-01-2018")) BHC <-BHC %>% mutate ( Date = stringr :: str_replace ( Date , "M_12" , "01-02-2018")) BHC <-BHC %>% mutate ( Date = stringr :: str_replace ( Date , "M_13" , "01-03-2018")) BHC <-BHC %>% mutate ( Date = stringr :: str_replace ( Date , "M_14" , "01-04-2018")) BHC <-BHC %>% mutate ( Date = stringr :: str_replace ( Date , "M_15" , "01-05-2018")) BHC <-BHC %>% mutate ( Date = stringr :: str_replace ( Date , "M_16" , "01-06-2018")) BHC <-BHC %>% mutate ( Date = stringr :: str_replace ( Date , "M_17" , "01-07-2018")) BHC <-BHC %>% mutate ( Date = stringr :: str_replace ( Date , "M_18" , "01-08-2018")) BHC <-BHC %>% mutate ( Date = stringr :: str_replace ( Date , "M_19" , "01-09-2018")) BHC <-BHC %>% mutate ( Date = stringr :: str_replace ( Date , "M_20" , "01-10-2018")) BHC <-BHC %>% mutate ( Date = stringr :: str_replace ( Date , "M_21" , "01-11-2018")) BHC <-BHC %>% mutate ( Date = stringr :: str_replace ( Date , "M_22" , "01-12-2018")) BHC <-BHC %>% mutate ( Date = stringr :: str_replace ( Date , "M_23" , "01-01-2019")) BHC <-BHC %>% mutate ( Date = stringr :: str_replace ( Date , "M_24" , "01-02-2019")) The first line works fine but by the end the output is corrupted to "01-03-20174" Any thoughts what I’m doing wrong here? ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
