Try these. Note that in the second series the number of fields does not match the number in the header so we just skip the header: library(zoo) z1 <- read.zoo("timeseries1sample.txt", format = "%m/%d/%Y", header = TRUE) z2 <- read.zoo("timeseries2.txt", format = "%Y%m%d", skip = 1) -- Statistics & Software Consulting GKX Group, GKX Associates Inc. tel: 1-877-GKX-GROUP email: ggrothendieck at gmail.com ______________________________________________ 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.
