Thanks Gabor for your reply. Your script will find missing days in date1 range but my intention was to find missing days in each level (df$lev) in corresponding month. The resulting df could look like this:
lev date1 1 lev1 2007-09-03 2 lev1 2007-09-04 4 lev1 2007-09-24 5 lev1 2007-09-25 6 lev1 2007-09-26 7 lev1 2007-09-27 8 lev1 2007-09-28 9 lev1 2007-09-29 10 lev1 2007-09-30 11 lev2 2007-09-01 12 lev2 2007-09-02 13 lev2 2007-09-03 14 lev2 2007-09-04 15 lev2 2007-09-05 16 lev2 2007-09-06 17 lev2 2007-09-07 18 lev2 2007-09-08 19 lev2 2007-09-09 20 lev2 2007-09-10 21 lev2 2007-09-11 22 lev2 2007-09-12 23 lev2 2007-09-13 24 lev2 2007-09-14 25 lev2 2007-09-15 26 lev2 2007-09-16 27 lev2 2007-09-17 28 lev2 2007-09-18 29 lev2 2007-09-19 30 lev2 2007-09-20 31 lev2 2007-09-21 32 lev2 2007-09-22 33 lev2 2007-09-23 34 lev2 2007-10-17 35 lev2 2007-10-18 36 lev2 2007-10-19 37 lev2 2007-10-20 38 lev2 2007-10-21 39 lev2 2007-10-22 20 lev2 2007-10-23 41 lev2 2007-10-24 42 lev2 2007-10-25 43 lev2 2007-10-26 44 lev2 2007-10-27 45 lev2 2007-10-28 46 lev2 2007-10-29 47 lev2 2007-10-20 48 lev2 2007-10-31 49 lev3 2007-10-01 etc. Thanks again, Lauri -----Original Message----- From: Gabor Grothendieck [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 2. tammikuuta 2008 9:22 To: Nikkinen Lauri Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [R] Find missing days Try this. It creates a sequence of dates from the range of df$date1 and then does a setdiff between that and the original dates. The result is numeric so we create a Date structure out of it. structure(setdiff(do.call(seq, as.list(range(df$date1))), df$date1), class = "Date") On Jan 2, 2008 1:55 AM, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > I have a data.frame like this: > > y <- rnorm(60) > lev <- gl(3,20, labels=paste("lev", 1:3, sep="")) > date1 <- as.Date(seq(ISOdate(2007,9,1), ISOdate(2007,11,5), > by=60*60*24)) > date1 <- date1[-c(3,4,15,34,38,40)] > df <- data.frame(lev=lev, date1=date1, y=y) > > I would like to produce a new data.frame with missing days in df$date1 > in each df$lev, like this: > > lev date1 > 1 lev1 2007-09-03 > 2 lev1 2007-09-04 > 3 lev1 2007-09-15 > 4 lev2 2007-09-01 > 5 lev2 2007-09-02 > etc. > > How can I do this? > > Thanks, > Lauri > FRCBS > > > > [[alternative HTML version deleted]] > > ______________________________________________ > R-help@r-project.org mailing list > 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. > ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list 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.
