Converting "day of year" to "year", "month" and "day"
Hi Jibrin, solar_wind_sps<-data.frame(sws=306,date="2021-016") solar_wind_spd solar_wind_spd$date<-as.Date(solar_wind_spd$date,"%Y-%j") solar_wind_spd This changes the "date" field to an actual date object. If you just want to change a character string date to another format: solar_wind_spd$date<-format(as.Date(solar_wind_spd$date,%Y-%j),"%Y-%m-%d") Jim On Sat, Jan 16, 2021 at 4:55 AM Jibrin Alhassan

Dear R users, I am very new to R software. I have solar wind speed data needed for my work. How do I convert day in the year to year, month, and day with R software? I have used this code as.Date(0, origin = "1998-01-01") but it can only convert one day of the year at a time. Meanwhile, I have up to the 1998-2002 data set. Attached is my data. Kindly help, please. Jibrin Alhassan
