I have data in a zoo data structure. I want to pull all August daily vaules over 10 years and compute monthly statistics for a period of record. Any thoughts on easy way to do this?

                    Thanks, I actually found a package that calculated the statistic I was manually trying to calculate, monthly mean and mean monthly. – dchawk May 15 '14 at 18:40

        an example will be great of the specific date format, however, try format()
for example:
x <- as.POSIXct("2009-08-03 12:01:59.23")
format(x,"%b")  
For simplicity, just create a new column with the format() then subset it with the month your looking for.
