\title{NA Handling Routines for Time Series}
\description{
Observations with missing values in some of the variables are
removed.
}
\usage{
na.remove(object, \dots)
}
\arguments{
\item{object}{a numeric matrix, vector, univariate, or multivariate
time series.}
\item{\dots}{further arguments to be passed to or from methods.}
}
\details{
For \code{na.remove.ts} this changes the ``intrinsic'' time scale. It
is assumed that both, the new and the old time scale are synchronized
at the first and the last valid observation. In between, the new
series is equally spaced in the new time scale.
}
\value{
An object without missing values. The attribute \code{"na.removed"}
contains the indices of the removed missing values in \code{object}.
