as.zoo

Coercion from and to zoo

Methods for coercing "zoo" objects to other classes and a generic function as.zoo for coercing objects to class "zoo".

Usage

as.zoo(x, ...)

Details

as.zoo currently has a default method and methods for ts, its and irts objects (and zoo objects themselves).

Methods for coercing objects of class "zoo" to other classes currently include: as.ts, as.matrix, as.vector, as.data.frame, as.list (the latter also being available for "ts" objects). Furthermore the coercion function as.its.zoo is provided, but works only if the corresponding package is attached.

In the conversion between zoo and ts, the zooreg class is always used.

## coercion from zoo:
x.date <- as.POSIXct(paste("2003-", rep(1:4, 4:1), "-", sample(1:28, 10, replace = TRUE), sep = ""))
x <- zoo(matrix(rnorm(24), ncol = 2), x.date)
