How to setup the tsp attribute of a dataset
The first two components of the tsp vector are in time units as mentioned in ?tsp . Thus you would want:
x <- 1:100 tsp(x) <- c(1, 25.75, 4)
but normally you don't have to set it explicitly in the first place. Just use ts:
x <- 1:100 x.ts <- ts(x, start = 1, frequency = 4) tsp(x.ts)
[1] 1.00 25.75 4.00
x.ts
Qtr1 Qtr2 Qtr3 Qtr4 1 1 2 3 4 2 5 6 7 8 3 9 10 11 12 4 13 14 15 16 5 17 18 19 20 6 21 22 23 24 7 25 26 27 28 8 29 30 31 32 9 33 34 35 36 10 37 38 39 40 11 41 42 43 44 12 45 46 47 48 13 49 50 51 52 14 53 54 55 56 15 57 58 59 60 16 61 62 63 64 17 65 66 67 68 18 69 70 71 72 19 73 74 75 76 20 77 78 79 80 21 81 82 83 84 22 85 86 87 88 23 89 90 91 92 24 93 94 95 96 25 97 98 99 100

Hello, I am wondering how I should set up the tsp attribute (available through attr(x, "tsp")) of a dataset x? Let's assume that x has 100 points, and I want to set the frequency to 4. I tried:
attr(x,"tsp")<-c(1,100,4)
Error in attr(x, "tsp") <- c(1, 100, 4) : ?invalid time series parameters specified Is there any other way to set the frequency of the data? Thanks. -Samik
