I am running into some date issues when working with Dates in R.
Here's my situation-
I have a data set based on dates and finally got the Date field converted from character to Date in R using the following code
o1$Date <- as.Date(o1$Date , "%m/%d/%y")
(My dataset is o1
and Date
is the name of my Date column)
My Date column has the following values
"1/1/2013" "1/1/2014" "1/10/2013" "1/10/2014" "1/11/2013" "1/11/2014"
However when I convert the Char to Date I get the following Dates
"2020-01-01" "2020-01-01" "2020-01-10" "2020-01-10" "2020-01-11"
Any suggestions on what the problem could be and how to work around it?
