生成两年中每月最后一天的序列

Question

我使用lubridate并认为这会很容易ymd("2010-01-31")+months(0:23)但是，看看有什么。都搞砸了！ [1] "2010-01-31 UTC" "2010-03-03 UTC" "2010-03-31 UTC" "2010-05-01 UTC" "2010-05-31 UTC" "2010-07-01 UTC" "2010-07-31 UTC" "2010-08-31 UTC" "2010-10-01 UTC"[10] "2010-10-31 UTC" "2010-12-01 UTC" "2010-12-31 UTC" "2011-01-31 UTC" "2011-03-03 UTC" "2011-03-31 UTC" "2011-05-01 UTC" "2011-05-31 UTC" "2011-07-01 UTC"[19] "2011-07-31 UTC" "2011-08-31 UTC" "2011-10-01 UTC" "2011-10-31 UTC" "2011-12-01 UTC" "2011-12-31 UTC"然后，我阅读了润滑如何满足间隔，持续时间和周期等现象。所以，好的，我意识到一个月实际上是（365 * 4 + 1）/ 48 = 30.438天定义的天数。所以我试图变得聪明，并将其重写为ymd("2010-01-31")+ as.period(months(0:23))但这只是一个错误。Error in as.period.default(months(0:23)) :   (list) object cannot be coerced to type 'double'

令人惊讶的是，输入问题会集中精力发挥创造力。我想我已经解决了。我不妨在这里张贴给下一个发现自己在浪费时间的可怜的灵魂。

ymd("2010-02-01")+ months(0:23)-days(1)

只需指定下个月的第一天并从中生成一个序列，但从中减去1天即可得到上个月的最后一天。

[1] "2010-01-31 UTC" "2010-02-28 UTC" "2010-03-31 UTC" "2010-04-30 UTC" "2010-05-31 UTC" "2010-06-30 UTC" "2010-07-31 UTC" "2010-08-31 UTC" "2010-09-30 UTC"

[10] "2010-10-31 UTC" "2010-11-30 UTC" "2010-12-31 UTC" "2011-01-31 UTC" "2011-02-28 UTC" "2011-03-31 UTC" "2011-04-30 UTC" "2011-05-31 UTC" "2011-06-30 UTC"

[19] "2011-07-31 UTC" "2011-08-31 UTC" "2011-09-30 UTC" "2011-10-31 UTC" "2011-11-30 UTC" "2011-12-31 UTC"

顺便说一句，我如何摆脱讨厌的“ UTC”称号。时区在需要时可以节省生命。其余的时间他们很讨厌。
