readUserDaily | R Documentation |
Imports data from a user-supplied file, and converts it to a Daily data frame, appropriate for WRTDS calculations. The file can use most any separators as a delimiter. The default is comma separated.
The first column is expected to be dates, the second column is expected to be discharge values. If the date format is not automatically detected, the format can be specified using the "format" argument.
readUserDaily(filePath, fileName, hasHeader = TRUE, separator = ",",
qUnit = 1, format = "%m/%d/%Y", verbose = TRUE)
