Description

Creates a sequence of dates or times.

Usage

dateSeq(from, to, length.out, by)

Arguments

from	starting date.
to	end date. Can be given instead of length.out parameter
by	character string, increment of the sequence. One of "min", "hour", "day", "week", "month", "quarter", "year". See 'Details'
lenght.out	desired length of the sequence. A non-negative integer. Can be given instead of to parameter.

Details

Depending on the value of by, there are some requirements for the other arguments.

• For "min" and "hour" the format of from and to should be a correct format for the function as.POSIXct.

• For "day" and "week" the format of from and to should be a correct format for the function as.Date.

• For "month" the format of from and to should be a correct format for the function yearmon.

• For "quarter" the format of from and to should be a correct format for the function yearqtr.

Value

A vector of dates.

Examples

dateSeq(from = "2022-01", length.out = 24, by = "month")
dateSeq(from = "2022-01-01", to = "2023-12", by = "month")
dateSeq(from = "2022-01-03", length.out = 12, by = "week")
dateSeq(from = "2022-01-03", to = "2022-03-21", by = "week")

#An example extracting the times of AirPassengers
dateSeq(from = time(AirPassengers)[1], length.out = length(AirPassengers), 
        by = "month")
