r - Convert month's number to Month name

Question

I need to convert this integer vector which contains the number of months in the year to month's name.

for example :

1
2
3

The expected result should be :

January
February
March

How can I do this, please? Thank you for your suggestions!

Answer 1

We can just use month.name to change the index of months to its corresponding name

month.name[v1]

and there is also a 3 character abbreviation for month

month.abb[v1]

data

set.seed(24)
v1 <- sample(1:12, 24, replace = TRUE)
