tsout = setabstime(tsin,timevals)

tsout = setabstime(tsin,timevals,timeformat)

Description

tsout = setabstime(tsin,timevals) sets the time vector of tsin to the date character vectors specified in timevals.

tsout = setabstime(tsin,timevals,timeformat) explicitly specifies the format used in timevals.

Examples

timeseries Dates

Set date character vectors as the time values in a timeseries object.

tsin = timeseries((1:3)');
tsout = setabstime(tsin,{'12-DEC-2005 12:34:56','12-DEC-2005 13:34:56','12-DEC-2005 14:34:56'});

Input Arguments

tsin — Input time series

timeseries object | tscollection object

Input time series, specified as a timeseries or tscollection object.

timevals — Sample times

array

Sample times, specified as a cell array of date character vectors. Valid date character vectors can have the following forms:
