Hi,
I am wondering if there is any way to get the full name from as.yearmon()
function. Please consider below example:
library(quantmod)
as.yearmon(Sys.Date())
This gives: [1] "Apr 2019".
How can I extract the full name ie. 'April 2019'
Internally, printing/formatting of yearmon objects uses the format method
for Date objects, see ?format.Date. The default is "%b %Y" where %b is the
abbreviated month name in the current locale. %B gives you the full month
name, both for Date directly and for yearmon:
R> format(Sys.Date(), "%B %Y")
[1] "April 2019"
R> format(as.yearmon(Sys.Date()), "%B %Y")
[1] "April 2019"
Appreciate your pointer. Thanks,
