How could I extract both month and year from a date? I know how to separately extract both using lubridate package:
df$month <- month(df$date) df$year<- year(df$date) I wish to extract year and month as one column > dput(mydf) structure(list(date = structure(c(14975, 14976, 14977, 14978, 14979, 14980, 14981, 14982, 14983, 14984, 14985, 14986, 14987, 14988, 14989, 15340, 15341, 15342, 15343, 15344, 15345, 15346, 15347, 15348, 15349, 15350, 15351, 15352, 15353, 15354), class = "Date"), temp = c(6.5140544091004, 3.69073712745884, 3.04839429519466, 9.16988228171461, -1.17176248610603, 2.88216040747883, 4.98853844809017, 4.07520306701834, 9.82902813943658, 2.79305715971987, 8.04721677924611, 7.50667729759095, 2.91055000121842, 1.65559895014064, 4.8019596483372, 16.2567986804179, 13.3352908067145, 16.6955807821108, 6.28373374879922, 6.97181051627531, 5.74282686202818, 4.37018386569785, 12.5725962512824, 4.6583055309578, 8.76457542037641, 10.7070862034423, 12.84023567151, 5.78620621848167, 5.98643374478599, 13.0993210289842)), .Names = c("date", "temp"), row.names = c(NA, 30L), class = "data.frame") [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see 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.
