How can I create a vector containing the days of the week?

Question

I need a vector containing the days of the week very often, but I always type it out:

days.of.week <- c(\"Monday\", \"Tuesday\", \"Wednesday\", \"Thursday\",          


        

Answer 1

Based on today's date we can also find days of a week

weekdays(as.Date(seq(7),origin=Sys.Date() - as.POSIXlt(Sys.Date())$wday ))
 [1] "Monday"    "Tuesday"   "Wednesday" "Thursday"  "Friday"    "Saturday" 
 [7] "Sunday"
