Hi this question has been bugging me for some time.
So I am trying to convert the so-called dates in my R project into actual dates. Right now the dates are arranged in a numerical manner, ie after 2/28/2020 it's not 3/1/2020 but 2/3/2020.
I've tried the
as.Date(3/14/2020, origin = "14-03-2020")
and also
df <- data.frame(Date = c("10/9/2009 0:00:00", "10/15/2009 0:00:00"))
as.Date(df$Date, "%m/%d/%Y %H:%M:%S")
and
strDates <- c("01/28/2020", "05/03/2020")%>%
dates <- as.Date(strDates, "%m/%d/%Y")
i just plugged in two dates to test out if it works or not because there are about around 40 dates. However, my output is as follows:
Error in as.Date.default(., 3/14/2020, origin = "14-03-2020") : do not know how to convert '.' to class “Date”
for the first one and then
the second one is:
data frame not found
the third one is
Error in as.Date(strDates, "%m/%d/%Y") : object 'strDates' not found
