Time Series Data Wrangling

Summarize by Time

claims_tbl %>%
  group_by(symbol) %>%
  summarise_by_time(
    .date_var = date, 
    claims = sum(claims),
    .by = "quarter"
  ) %>%
  plot_time_series(date, claims, .facet_ncol = 2, .interactive = FALSE)
## Ignoring unknown labels:
## • colour : "Legend"

Filter By Time

claims_tbl %>%
  group_by(symbol) %>%
  filter_by_time(
    .date_var = date,
    .start_date = "2008",
    .end_date = "2010"
  ) %>%
  plot_time_series(date, claims, .facet_ncol = 2, .interactive = FALSE)
## Ignoring unknown labels:

Padding Data
