Re: [R] Fitting Arima Model to Daily Time Series
Paul Good you ask because as far as I can remember (some people in the forum are experts on both time series and how R handles time series), it's not advisable to use the ts() function in the base package when dealing with daily observations (because of leap years, mostly). Therefore, you need to use the packages zoo or xts, as explained here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8437620/analyzing-daily-weekly-data-using-ts-in-r You can also use the package timeSeries. If you need to take into account weekdays or weekends (that depends on your research question and modelling, of course), R can do it for you as well.

To fit the models use the function Arima (note the capital "A").
