How to separate date and time from datetime format using R












0















I have a dataset called "Tickets" where there is a column called Date Created. I want to separate date and time and form a new column called Date and Time (That means I want to mutate).



enter image description here.



I tried using lubridate but it gives me NA values.



Also I used :



Hours <- format(as.POSIXct(strptime(tickets$`Date Created`,"%m/%d/%Y %H:%M",tz="")) ,format = "%H:%M")
Hours


However if I am trying to view the dataset it doesn't show any column named Hours Please can anybody tell me whats the issue.



Thank you very much.



Edit : I was finally able to separate them using below code
tickets %>%
mutate_at(vars(Date Created), mdy_hms) %>%
mutate_at(vars(Date Created), funs("date" = date(.), "time" = as.hms(.))) %>%
select(-Date Created) However it shows wrong date and timeenter image description here



What can be wrong with this code?

          From what I can tell by your question:



          library(tidyverse)
          head(df)
          testTime
          1 2018-11-24 02:44:07
          new_df <- separate(data = df, col = testTime, into = c('Date', 'Time'), sep = ' ')
          head(new_df)
          Date Time
          1 2018-11-24 02:44:07


          Should get you there.



          Consider rewording the last part of your question, I could not understand what you are asking. Also, use typeof() in your column, dates can be stored either as strings or integers and look the same.

            Try this out. I only use three dates as an example. First we change your character class to a date time, then we extract out the dates, lastly we extract the times. I assume you want the date as class date and the time as class time. If not, the other solution would be easier. Also note that I add seconds to the time for ease of use.

                Try this out. I only use three dates as an example. First we change your character class to a date time, then we extract out the dates, lastly we extract the times. I assume you want the date as class date and the time as class time. If not, the other solution would be easier. Also note that I add seconds to the time for ease of use.



                library(tidyverse)
                library(lubridate)

                df <- data_frame(date_time = c("8/1/2018 4:55", "8/1/2018 7:53", "8/1/2018 10:10"))
                df %>%
                mutate(date_time = paste0(date_time, ":00"),
                date_time = parse_date_time(date_time, orders = "mdy HMS"),
                date = date(date_time),
                time = chron::times(strftime(date_time,"%H:%M:%S", tz = "UTC")))
                #> # A tibble: 3 x 3
                #> date_time date time
                #> <dttm> <date> <S3: times>
                #> 1 2018-08-01 04:55:00 2018-08-01 04:55:00
                #> 2 2018-08-01 07:53:00 2018-08-01 07:53:00
                #> 3 2018-08-01 10:10:00 2018-08-01 10:10:00
