将日期数据从SAS转入R [英] transfer date data from SAS into R

问题描述

请问这个问题，我将一个sas7数据集应用到R中是非常奇怪的。
我的一个变量是visit_date

It's quite weird to ask this question that I apply a sas7 dataset into R. One of my variable is visit_date

现在看起来像这样，我想知道我可以将其转换回MM-DD-YYYY，因为我需要排除小于MDY的数据（08-01-2010）。

now it looks like this, i am wondering where i can transform them back to MM-DD-YYYY since i need to exclude data that's less than MDY(08-01-2010).

推荐答案

这些日期明显地使用与可以用于此转换的典型POSIX标准不同的起始/偏移量。 R通常使用YYYY-MM-DD格式

Those "dates" are clearly using a different origin/offset than the typical POSIX standard that would work with this conversion. R generally uses YYYY-MM-DD format

as.Date(ddd, origin="1970-01-01")

> head( as.Date(ddd, origin="1970-01-01") )
[1] "2016-10-03" "2016-10-17" "2016-10-31" "2016-11-14" "2016-11-28" "2016-09-25"

所以你需要建立正确的起源。如果是1960-01-01，那么这些日期都不会大于08-01-2010。

So you need to establish the correct origin. If it was 1960-01-01, then none of those dates is greater than 08-01-2010.

> sum( as.Date(ddd, origin="1960-01-01") >= as.Date("2010-08-01") )
[1] 0
> sum( as.Date(ddd, origin="1960-01-01") < as.Date("2010-08-01") )
