如何用相邻值替换数据帧中的NA(缺失值)

862 2006-05-19 6.241603 5.774208     
863 2006-05-20 NA       NA      
864 2006-05-21 NA       NA      
865 2006-05-22 6.383929 5.906426      
866 2006-05-23 6.782068 6.268758      
867 2006-05-24 6.534616 6.013767      
868 2006-05-25 6.370312 5.856366      
869 2006-05-26 6.225175 5.781617      
870 2006-05-27 NA       NA     

I have a data frame x like above with some NA, which i want to fill using neighboring non-NA values like for 2006-05-20 it will be avg of 19&22

我有一个像上面这样的数据框架x和一些NA，我想用邻近的非NA值来填充，比如2006-05-20它将是avg (19&22

How do it is the question?

Properly formatted your data looks like this

正确格式化数据如下所示

and is of a time-series nature. So I would load into an object of class zoo (from the zoo package) as that allows you to pick a number of strategies -- see below. Which one you pick depends on the nature of your data and application. In general, the field of 'figuring missing data out' is called data imputation and there is a rather large literature.

并且具有时间序列性质。因此，我将加载到class zoo(来自zoo包)的对象中，因为这允许您选择一些策略——见下面。您选择哪一个取决于您的数据和应用程序的性质。一般来说，“计算遗漏的数据”的领域被称为数据归算，有相当大的文献。
