MATLAB: How to delete from timeseries

Question

Hello Everyone,

I am not really good at matlab and I am dealing with a time series data. The times series format is dd/mm/yyyy, I have attached a picture of the format.

My time series ranges from 1949 to 2017, my problem is if I want to delete a specific year in this time series, lets say 1949 along with data that comes with it…How do remove it from my time series?

I tried a bunch of time series commands such as delsample…but it didn't work. I don't know how to get about this.

If more information is needed please let me know,

Thank you.

Assuming your data is in variable ts, and using the example of wanting to delete multiple years:

mask = ~ismember(year(ts.Time), [1949, 1950]);
new_ts = getsamples(ts, mask);
