[R] Merging two data objects question I have two R objects, allDataSubset1 and allDataSubset2 and the str of
both of them is shown below ( I don't show all 18 lists for
space purposes ). The difference between them is that the times ( and
possibly the days ) and the data is different and what I want to do is
merge them so that only the data in Subset2 that is the same day and
times as Subset 1 remains in the merged dataset. Obviously the
column names of Subset2 would have to changed to AUDB, CADB, CHFB etc
when they were merged ? I have no idea how to do this and originally
these 2 lists come from a zoo object so , if it's easier to merge the
zoo objects and then do the creation of the lists, that's okay also but
I don't know how to do that either. So, if someone wants me to send the
the str of the zoo objects, I can do that also. Thanks so much for any
help on this. It seems really complicated to me and I looked up merge
but it said that it works off of data frames ? Maybe I need to put them
in a data
frame but with all these lists of lists etc, I'm totally clueless on how
to do that.
