Filling missing parts in a file with Nan

Hi,

I have a data for a year in every 15 mins. In times when there weren't any data it is skipped whil I want to find that missing times and put Nan instead. My idea is to define a Nan file and then find that times that data is available and put then in my Nan file but i do't know how to write a code for that. Please let me know if you have any idea.

See retime

It is not helping. I want to put Nan for missing ones. Can you explain more?

This is the error I get.

Check for missing argument or incorrect argument data type in call to function 'retime'

Please show your call to retime() and please show class() of each variable involved.

You've got to turn your data into a timetable first; then it's a trivial exercise. There's even <an example> that illustrates exactly your desire.

That's what the error message "...or incorrect argument data type in call to function 'retime'" is almost certainly complaining about. As @Walter Roberson says, when we are blind to what you've done and what the data types/classes are, it's bound to lead to much more hit'n miss and questions...

It is fixed now. Thank you !

It is fixed now. I didn't define a timetable at first that's why I got that error. Thank you !

Yeah, ya' gotta' parse error messages carefully; they almost always will tell you enough to figure out what's wrong, but have to pay close attention, often. This one that has the "or" in it seems to me could/should only tell you about the first argument not being of the t-table class when it isn't.

I also wish they would extend retime to other tables where there is a datetime variable and let one define which variable is the chosen one instead of restricting it to the ttable only....sometimes you don't want a ttable but the functionality is...of course, you can convert back and forth and get there...
