getNewGapsInd: A function to create random gaps

Description

This function creates nGaps gaps of length lGaps in the time series timSer. It is used internally. The gaps do not overlay amongst them; they do not overlay pre-existing gaps either.

Usage

getNewGapsInd(timSer, lGaps, nGaps)

Arguments

timSer

The time series where the gaps will be created.

lGaps

The length of the gaps

nGaps

The number of gaps.

Value

A vector containing the indices of the gaps

Examples

# NOT RUN {
# Create time series
TS <- genTSExample(InKTSEnv = FALSE)[1:50,]

# Create 3 gaps of 7 NAs each
gInd <- getNewGapsInd(TS, 7, 3)

# Create time series duplicate and apply the gaps
TS1 <- TS
TS1$value[gInd] <- NA

#Compare
cbind(TS, TS1$value)

# }
