I know that this is correct:
library(chron)
x = dates("01-03-04", format="d-m-y", out.format="day mon year")
print(x)
It gives me the string "01 Mar 2004" which is correct.
I also know that I can say:
print(day.of.week(3,1,2004))
in which case he says 1, for today is monday.
My question is: How do I combine these two!? :-) I have a data file
which is being parsed nicely and read in using the chron() function. I
need to identify fridays and treat them differently. So I need to run
the day.of.week function. But day.of.week() doesn't eat a chron
object, he insists he wants m,d,y. This seems quite odd. Any idea what
I can do?
Thanks,
-ans.
