Hi R,
The dates when exported from Excel to R by "Put R Var", gives one less
day.
For example,
1. Let 1/1/2011 be the cell A1 in date format.
2. Right click and select "Put R Var" and give a name to it say,
"StartDate" (R in foreground process)
3. In the R console see the value stored in "StartDate"
4. The output is:
> StartDate
[1] "2010-12-31 23:30:00 IST"
Please note that this output is 30 minutes less than the actual date.
Why is this?
Thanks and Regards,
Shubha
