date and time conversion
Hello, mpostje wrote
Hi I've been trying to convert numbers from an online temperature database into dates and time that R recognizes. the problem is that the database has put a T between the numbers and R will not accept any conversions. this is the format that it's in now 1981-01-02T08:00 can anyone help? cheers!
Try
x <- "1981-01-02T08:00"
x.new <- sub("T", " ", x)
as.POSIXct(x.new)
Hope this helps,
Rui Barradas
