Numeric and character vectors to facilitate working with dates

Description

Numeric and character vectors to simplify functional data computations and plotting involving dates.

Format

• dayOfYear a numeric vector = 1:365 with names 'jan01' to 'dec31'.

• dayOfYearShifted a numeric vector = c(182:365, 1:181) with names 'jul01' to 'jun30'.

• day.5 a numeric vector = dayOfYear-0.5 = 0.5, 1.5, ..., 364.5

• daysPerMonth a numeric vector of the days in each month (ignoring leap years) with names = month.abb

• monthEnd a numeric vector of cumsum(daysPerMonth) with names = month.abb

• monthEnd.5 a numeric vector of the middle of the last day of each month with names = month.abb = c(Jan=30.5, Feb=58.5, ..., Dec=364.5)

• monthBegin.5 a numeric vector of the middle of the first day of each month with names - month.abb = c(Jan=0.5, Feb=31.5, ..., Dec=334.5)

• monthMid a numeric vector of the middle of the month = (monthBegin.5 + monthEnd.5)/2

• monthLetters A character vector of c("j", "F", "m", "A", "M", "J", "J", "A", "S", "O", "N", "D"), with 'month.abb' as the names.

• weeks a numeric vector of length 53 marking 52 periods of approximately 7 days each throughout the year = c(0, 365/52, ..., 365)

Details

Miscellaneous vectors often used in 'fda' scripts.

Examples

daybasis65 <- create.fourier.basis(c(0, 365), 65)
daytempfd <- with(CanadianWeather, smooth.basisPar(day.5,
    dailyAv[,,"Temperature.C"], daybasis65)$fd )
oldpar <- par(axes=FALSE)
plot(daytempfd)
axisIntervals(1)
# axisIntervals by default uses
# monthBegin.5, monthEnd.5, monthMid, and month.abb
axis(2)
par(oldpar)
