我无法使用 R 和 ts() 函数正确地将我的年度数据转换为时间序列

Question

I am currently trying to transform this data into annual time series data ranging from 2000 to 2019. The following is the code I use.

WealthShare <- read_excel("WealthShareTop10%.xlsx")
WealthShare_vector <- c(WealthShare$Europe)
WealthShare_ts <- ts(WealthShare_vector, start =c(2000),end = c(2019), frequency =1)
print(WealthShare_ts)

The output is the following:

Time Series:
Start = 2000 
End = 2019 
Frequency = 1 
 [1] 57.82 57.33 54.81 54.74 54.19 54.34 53.75 53.57 53.54 53.13
[11] 53.51 53.76 54.90 56.75 58.46 59.34 59.47 58.73 58.75 58.69

I would like to know why its not in the typical ts format. Thank you!

Answer 1

stats::ts will not even allow a ts object to be defined with start after end . You may have some other package attached that defines a new method for ts . What other packages do you have attached?

What is your R version (from R.Version() )?

What do you get for methods(ts) ?

What do you see when you enter ts at the console and hit enter?
