Extracting Rows from a Dateframe by Hour: A Simple R Example
library(lubridate) df$time <- hms(df$time) # Convert to time class df$hour <- hour(df$time) # Extract hour component # Perform subsetting for hours 7, 8, and 9 (since there's no hour 10 in the example data) df_7_to_9 <- df[df$hour %in% c(7, 8, 9), ] print(df_7_to_9) This will print out the rows from df where the hour is between 7 and 9 (inclusive). Note that since there’s no row with an hour of 10 in your example data, I’ve adjusted the condition to include hours 8 as well.
