Converting dates from excel to R

Question

I have difficulty converting dates from excel (reading from csv) to R. Help is much appreciated.

Here is what I\'m doing:

df$date = as.Date(df$exce         


        

Answer 1

Your data is formatted as Month/Day/Year so

df$date = as.Date(df$excel.date, format = "%d/%m/%Y")

should be

df$date = as.Date(df$excel.date, format = "%m/%d/%Y")
