How do I sort dates by month in R?-CodePudding

new R student here. I am trying to sort data by month. Here is a sample of the data I need to use, followed by the code, then my results. Any tips for how to accomplish this?! I'm super stuck...

This is the latest code I have been trying:

 library(readr)
weather <- read_csv("R/weather.csv", col_types = cols(High = col_number(), 
                                                      Low = col_number(), Precip = col_number(), 
                                                      Snow = col_number(), Snowd = col_integer()))
View(weather)

library(ggplot2)
library(ggridges)
library(dplyr)
library(lubridate)


class(weather)  #what class is dataset = dataframe
head(weather)  #structure of the dataset  

weather.month <- weather %>%   # Group data by month
  mutate(weather, 'month') %>%
  group_by(month = lubridate::floor_date(weather$Day, 'month')) %>%
  summarise(weather.month$High)

Then this is the errors I get:

Any help getting through this would be greatly appreciated!!!

CodePudding user response：

The code can be modified by converting the Day to Date class (with mdy or dmy - as it is not clear whether it is month-day-year or day-month-year format), then apply the floor_date by 'month' and apply the function on High column

library(dplyr)
library(lubridate)
weather %>%   #
  group_by(month = lubridate::floor_date(mdy(Day), 'month')) %>%
  summarise(High = sum(High, na.rm = TRUE))
