to subset a dataframe based on year and month












0














I want to subset my dataframe from Sept 2017 to April 2018. My dataframe is like this:-



Year    Month   Day    Avg_Temp
2017 8 31 20
2017 9 1 22
.
.
.
2018 4 30 26
2018 5 1 30


I want that my dataset from 1 Sept 2017 to 30 April 2018.



Year    Month   Day    Avg_Temp
2017 9 1 22
.
.
.
2018 4 30 26


based on just the year I am to do subset.



df <-df[df$YEAR>="2017" & df$YEAR<="2018", ]


But I need to subset from month as well. Any help would be great

          Here is a dplyr approach:



           require(tidyverse)
          df<-data.frame(Year=c(2018,2017,2017,2017,2018,2018,2018),
          Month=c(9,8,10,4,9,3,4),Day=c(13,12,14,15,17,15,14))
          df %>%
          filter(Year==2017&Month>=9|Year==2018&Month<=4)


          Which Yields this:



                 Year Month Day
          1 2017 9 14
          2 2018 3 15
          3 2018 4 14

          • Thank you for the response. Using this:- RawWeatherBoston %>% filter(YEAR==2017&MONTH%in%c(4:7)), I am able to get data from April 2017 to July 2017. I want to get data from Sept 2017 to April 2018.

          Try this option:



          df <- df[(df$Year == 2017 & df$Month >= 9) |
          (df$Year == 2018 & df$Month <= 4), ]


          By the way, you might want to consider storing your dates as a proper date type, including a day component.

          Perhaps it would be easier if the three date components were encoded in one Date column :



          df$Date <- as.Date(paste(df$Year, df$Month, df$Date, sep = '-'))
          df$Year <- NULL
          df$Month <- NULL

          df <- df[df$Date > as.Date('2017-09-01') & df$Date < as.Date('2018-04-01'), ]

            I don't want to combine all three columns. I need 3 separate columns for Year, Month and Day

          • I tried this but this isn't working. It is not filtering anything. Also the data type of Year is changing to Logical(YEAR : logi TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE)

          Perhaps it would be easier if the three date components were encoded in one Date column :



          df$Date <- as.Date(paste(df$Year, df$Month, df$Date, sep = '-'))
          df$Year <- NULL
          df$Month <- NULL

          df <- df[df$Date > as.Date('2017-09-01') & df$Date < as.Date('2018-04-01'), ]

            I don't want to combine all three columns. I need 3 separate columns for Year, Month and Day
