Greetings,
For the following quarterly data I did a classical decomposition by hand in a spreadsheet and got reasonably similar results using Minitab 15. x 1 36 2 44 3 45 4 106 5 38 6 46 7 47 8 112 9 42 10 49 11 48 12 118 13 42 14 50 15 51 16 118 Trying my luck with R, I tried to use the decompose function but it gives me the following: Error in decompose(data.t) : time series has no or less than 3 periods data.t is indeed a time series (is.ts returns true) and when I plot data.t it looks like a times series. Any suggestions on how to use decompose here (if it is the right function)? Thanks.
