Hello,
I am new to Matlab and I am trying to spread monthly data into a table that is indexed daily. For example:
Date Data
01/1982 0.15
02/1982 -0.02
03/1982 -0.05
What I would like to achieve...
Date Data
1/1/1982 0.15
1/2/1982 0.15
1/3/1982 0.15
1/4/1982 0.15
....
1/31/1982 0.15
2/1/1982 -0.02
2/2/1982 -0.02
2/3/1982 -0.02
2/4/1982 -0.02
I other words, I am trying to convert a table with 240 rows (20 years in months) to one with 7300 rows (20 years in days).
Is this easily doable in matlab? Greatly appreciate any advice.

One way to do the expansion... convert your monthly dates to the first of each month, then use dateshift to check which month each of your days match:
% Some placeholder data... you'll have to read your tables as appropriate
tmon = datetime(1982, 1:3, 1);
ymon = [0.15 -0.02 -0.05];
tday = datetime(1982,1,1) + days(0:89);
% Match up days to months
[~,loc] = ismember(dateshift(tday, 'start', 'month'), tmon);
yday = ymon(loc);
