[R] Extract month and year as one column

[Kumsaa]

How could I extract both month and year from a date? I know how to
separately extract both using lubridate package:

df$month <- month(df$date)
df$year<- year(df$date)

I wish to extract year and month as one column

> dput(mydf)
structure(list(date = structure(c(14975, 14976, 14977, 14978,
14979, 14980, 14981, 14982, 14983, 14984, 14985, 14986, 14987,

15347, 15348, 15349, 15350, 15351, 15352, 15353, 15354), class = "Date"),
