plotting time series with zoo pckg
Try this:
# test data
library(zoo)
z <- structure(c(21, 34, 33, 41, 39, 38, 37, 28, 33, 40),
index = structure(c(8044, 8051, 8058, 8065, 8072, 8079, 8086,
8093, 8100, 8107), class = "Date"), class = "zoo")
z
# plot without X axis
plot(z, xaxt = "n")
# unlabelled tick at each point
axis(1, time(z), lab = FALSE)
# labelled tick every third point
dd <- time(z)[seq(1, length(z), 3)]
axis(1, dd, as.character(dd), cex.axis = 0.7, tcl = -0.7)

Hi all,
I am using the zoo package to plot time series. I have a problem with formatting the axes.
my zoo object (z) looks like the following.
c1
1992-01-10 21
1992-01-17 34
1992-01-24 33
1992-01-31 41
1992-02-07 39
1992-02-14 38
1992-02-21 37
1992-02-28 28
1992-03-06 33
1992-03-13 40
plot.zoo(z) produces a plot with the labels on the x-axis that I cannot control.
I want a an xtick every 10 data points with corresponding date labels.
I have tried different combination of axis command without success
any idea?
Thanks
