datefixR: Standardize Dates in Different Formats or with Missing Data
Source:R/datefixR-package.R
datefixR.Rd
There are many different formats dates are commonly represented
with: the order of day, month, or year can differ, different separators
("-", "/", or whitespace) can be used, months can be numerical, names, or
abbreviations and year given as two digits or four. datefixR
takes dates
in all these different formats and converts them to R's built-in date
class. If datefixR
cannot standardize a date, such as because it is too
malformed, then the user is told which date cannot be standardized and the
corresponding ID for the row. datefixR
also allows the imputation of
missing days and months with user-controlled behavior.
