Hi all, I'm just getting started in R so bear with my newbness.
I am trying to create a very simple histogram of logins by time, with data
coming in from a MYSQL query.
the raw data looks like this:
"id" "user_id" "experience_given"
"created_at" "ip_aton"
"1" XXXXXXX 2445626 0 "2010-01-21 00:00:01" 1123632036
"2" XXXXXXX 2444945 0 "2010-01-21 00:00:01" 1123632036
After searching around for how to deal with the timestamp, I settled with
converting to POSIXct, and creating a chron object with as.numeric(). So I
managed to replace the timestamps with chron objects.
command:
bt$created_at = chron(as.numeric(as.POSIXct(bt$created_at)))
Seems very roundabout, but gets the job done. I also see that I could just
use the numerical value instead, if readability wasn't an issue.
The problem is, when I try to hist(bt$created_at), I get errors:
Error in axis(2, adj = adj, cex = cex, font = font, las = las, lab = lab, :
'labels' is supplied and not 'at'
In addition: Warning messages:
1: In plot.window(xlim, ylim, log = log, ...) :
"histo" is not a graphical parameter
2: In title(main = main, sub = sub, xlab = xlab, ylab = ylab, ...) :
"histo" is not a graphical parameter
and the histogram looks busted like this:

Any ideas? I'm quite lost here, and having trouble finding date-time
specific info. I do get the gist that chron is supposed to be the key, but
I'm having a hard time understanding an overview of all the different time
related classes. thnx for any advice in advance.
