Hi all, I am writing a matrix (typeof = double) into a CSV file with write.csv. My first column of the matrix is a date in the form yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss:
a_fetchdata[1,0]
2016-02-09 07:30:00
typeof(a_fetchdata[1,0])
[1] "double"
Your a_fetchdatra object isn't a matrix. It looks like it's either an xts or a zoo object. I'm not sure how you concluded that the first column is a date-time, based on the result of extracting the 0-th column.
My CSV file contains a sequence of integers (from 1 to x) instead of the expected date. How can I prevent that conversion to happen when writing into CSV?
Use write.zoo.
Thanks
Peter
