Hello, I have a table with list Ids in numbers and corresponding datenum in which these Ids were occured. Can you please help me to convert these datenum to dates?
The table is like this:
ID_1 Dates_1 ID_2 Dates_2
2 737735.191331019 6 737735.182129630
3 737735.182013889 7 737735.141481482
I tried this:
for counter= 1:(size(table,1))
if mod(counter,2)==0
col_name=table.Properties.VariableNames{counter};
table{:,col_name}=datetime(table{:,col_name},'ConvertFrom', 'datenum');
end
end
And i got error like this:
The following error occurred converting from datetime to double:
Undefined function 'double' for input arguments of type 'datetime'. To convert from datetimes to numeric, first subtract off a datetime origin, then convert to numeric using the SECONDS, MINUTES, HOURS, DAYS, or YEARS functions.

Suppose T is your table variable
T.Dates_1 = datetime(T.Dates_1, 'ConvertFrom', 'datenum');
T.Dates_2 = datetime(T.Dates_2, 'ConvertFrom', 'datenum');

a=[2 737735.191331019 6 737735.182129630
3 737735.182013889 7 737735.141481482];
T = array2table(a,'V',{'ID_1','Dates_1','ID_2','Dates_2'});
T = [T,varfun(@(x)datetime(x,'ConvertFrom','datenum'),T,'InputVariable',[2,4])];
Tout = T(:,[1,5,3,6]);
