Hi all,
I have a data set
containing dates in the format of m/d/y starting from 1950. I wanted to
use standard format of date R uses. So I read the data set in R and
converted it using as.Dates. But for dates from 1950-1968, I have the
following problem.
as.Date("1/1/50","%m/%d/%y",origin="1900/01/01") ="2050-01-01" instead of
"1950-01-01"
But for dates 1969 onwards it is working fine.
as.Date("1/1/69","%m/%d/%y") = "1969-01-01"
Can anyone please help me find out the problem?
Thanks
Shant
