如何计算R中一列中两个日期之间的天数

Question

我有以下两个数据框：

Date <- seq(as.Date("2013/1/1"), by = "day", length.out = 17)
x <-data.frame(Date)
x$discharge <- c("1000","1100","1200","1300","1400","1200","1300","1300","1200","1100","1200","1200","1100","1400","1200","1100","1400")
x$discharge <- as.numeric(x$discharge)

和

Date2 <- c("2013-01-01","2013-01-08","2013-01-12","2013-01-17")
y <- data.frame(Date2)
y$concentration <- c("1.5","2.5","1.5","3.5")
y$Date2 <- as.Date(y$Date2)
y$concentration <- as.numeric(y$concentration)

我正在尝试使用以下代码计算从一个日期到另一个日期的天数：

y %>%
    mutate(BETWEEN0=as.numeric(difftime(Date2,lag(Date2,1))),BETWEEN=ifelse(is.na(BETWEEN0),0,BETWEEN0))%>%
    select(-BETWEEN0)

导致：

Date2         concentration BETWEEN
1 2013-01-01           1.5       0
2 2013-01-08           2.5       7
3 2013-01-12           1.5       4
4 2013-01-17           3.5       5

但是，我需要的是在第一个日期旁边打印的两个日期之间计算的天数，例如

Date2         concentration BETWEEN
1 2013-01-01           1.5       7
2 2013-01-08           2.5       4
3 2013-01-12           1.5       5
4 2013-01-17           3.5       0

这意味着从2013-01-01到2013-01-07是7天，从2013-01-08到2013-01-12是4天，依此类推。

Answer 1

y%>%mutate(Between=as.numeric(lead(Date2,default = last(Date2))-Date2))
       Date2 concentration Between
1 2013-01-01           1.5       7
2 2013-01-08           2.5       4
3 2013-01-12           1.5       5
4 2013-01-17           3.5       0


y%>%mutate(Between=as.numeric(c(diff(Date2),0)))
       Date2 concentration Between
1 2013-01-01           1.5       7
2 2013-01-08           2.5       4
3 2013-01-12           1.5       5
4 2013-01-17           3.5       0

在基数R中：

 transform(y,Between=as.numeric(c(diff(Date2),0)))
