Hello, i hope this email finds you well. Kindly help me to format dates
shown as character to dates using as.Dates.

Attached herewith is my data in excel csv format.

The following is the  r-code i have used in my analysis:


setwd("Z:/2022/September/Inflation forecasts")
inflation<-read.csv("Inflation_forecasts_1.csv")
attach(inflation)
inflation[,1:2 ] #subsetting the dataframe
inflation.df<-inflation[,1:2]
attach(inflation.df)
#Renaming variables
inflation<- rename(inflation.df,
                   cpi = CPI,
                   year=period)

#subsetting data April 2020 to current
inflation.2<-data.frame(inflation[-c(1:135),])
####Defining variables for use in the analysis
attach(inflation.2)

t <- year
class(inflation.2$cpi)
inflation.2$cpi <- as.numeric(as.character(inflation.2$cpi))
Y <- cpi
sapply(inflation.2, class)

format(as.Date(inflation.2$period), "%Y-%m")



Thank you in advance.

Admire
