Changing date format in R
(7 answers)
Closed 2 years ago.
I have this date format: 2016-04-14 and I want to change it to 14/4/16
This seems like a simple task but for some reason my strategy is not working. Here is my code:
''''
df$Date <- as.Date(df$Date,format = "%d/%m/%y")
''''
If you want date in specific format use format :
format(as.Date(df$Date), "%d/%m/%y")

What are the "standard unambiguous date" formats for string-to-date conversion in R?

For my dataset, the Date variable has dates in the format of this example: 19-Feb-03
I want to change the above character format dates in the column to a Date format. (As I have to do time series analysis later on)
I tried using the as.Date() method but it didn't work.
x <- '19-Feb-03'
lubridate::ymd(x)
"2019-02-03"
Not sure whether 19 is year or day. You can try lubridate package
x<-"19-Feb-03"
library(lubridate)
ymd(x)
dmy(x)

I want to convert numeric date format to date. I.E. I have value 44109, but want to convert it to 2020-10-06. How is it possible?
Try something like below
> as.Date(44109,origin = "1900-01-01")
[1] "2020-10-07"
this works as well
x <- as.POSIXct(44109 * (60*60*24), origin="1899-12-30", tz="GMT")
"2020-10-05 GMT"

I have a column with date in the format 20201020 (AAAAMMDD) as integer and a need to format as date 2020-10-20.
I`ve tried:
as.Date(MYDATE, format = "%m/%d/%y", origin = "1900-01-01")

But returned just
NA
Using lubridate we can:

I need to find the difference in days between 2 date columns, but one of them is in the format of "6/16/2019" and the other is in the format of "2019-02-25". Not sure which one would be easier to convert to which, but would like to get end result in days. Which I know how to do. I would appreciate help converting the second yyyy-mm-dd to mm-dd-yyyy.
We can use functions from the lubridate package to convert the different formats to dates, and then subtract.
rawData <- "date1,date2
2002-05-15,6/16/2019
2019-12-31,4/15/2020"
data <- read.csv(text = rawData,stringsAsFactors = FALSE)
library(lubridate)
mdy(data$date2) - ymd(data$date1)
...and the output:
> mdy(data$date2) - ymd(data$date1)
Time differences in days
[1] 6241 106

Extract month and year from a zoo::yearmon object
(7 answers)
Closed 7 years ago.
I have an r dataset which has a list of timestamps like this: 2009-08-18 14:38:20 2010-08-10 14:58:25 etc
I want to extract the year but the Posixct doesn't have a years function unlike the months(t$timestamp)
Is there a way to get only 2009?
Use format:
x <- as.POSIXct(c("2009-08-18 14:38:20", "2010-08-10 14:58:25"))
format(x, "%Y")
Have you tried ?
strptime(yourtimestamp, "%Y")
