Compute adjusted dates

Description

Adjust a vector of dates following a business-day convention

Usage

adjust_cpp(dates, bdc = 0L)

adjust(dates, bdc = c("Following", "ModifiedFollowing", "Preceding",
  "ModifiedPreceding", "Unadjusted", "HalfMonthModifiedFollowing", "Nearest"))

Arguments

dates

A Date vector with dates

bdc

A character variable describing one of several supported values, the C++ version implements expects a corresponding integer value

Details

This function takes a vector of dates and returns another vector of dates of the same length returning at each position the adjusted date according to the selected business-day convention. Currently supported values for the business day convention are (starting from zero): ‘Following’, ‘ModifiedFollowing’, ‘Preceding’, ‘ModifiedPreceding’, ‘Unadjusted’, ‘HalfModifiedFollowing’ and ‘Nearest’.

Value

A Date vector with dates adjust according to business-day convention

Examples

adjust(Sys.Date()+0:6)

Advance a date

Description

Advance a date to the next business day plus an optional shift

Usage

advanceDate(rd, days = 0L, unit = "Days", bdc = "Following",
  eom = FALSE)

Arguments

rd

A Date object describing the date to be advanced to the next business day.

days

An optional integer offset applied to the date

unit

An optional character value denoting a time unit, default value is “Day”, and supported values are “Days”, “Weeks”, “Months”, “Years”, “Hours”, “Seconds”, “Minutes”, “Milliseconds”, “Microseconds”.

bdc

An optional integer defining a business day convention, default is “Following”, and supported values are “Following”, “ModifiedFollowing”, “Preceding”, “ModifiedPreceding”, “Unadjusted”, “HalfMonthModifiedFollowing” and “Nearest”.

eom

An optional boolean toggle whether end-of-month is to be respected

Details

This function takes a given date and advances it to the next business day under the current (global) calendar setting. If an optional offset value is given it is applied as well.

Value

The advanced date is returned

See Also

The advanceUnits functions offers the same functionality from R.

Examples

advanceDate(Sys.Date(), 2)  # today to the next biz day, plus 2 days

Compute adjusted dates

Description

Advance a vector of dates by a given number of time units

Usage

advanceUnits_cpp(dates, n, unit, bdc, emr)

advanceUnits(dates, n, unit = c("Days", "Weeks", "Months", "Years", "Hours",
  "Minutes", "Seconds", "Milliseconds", "Microseconds"), bdc = c("Following",
  "ModifiedFollowing", "Preceding", "ModifiedPreceding", "Unadjusted",
  "HalfMonthModifiedFollowing", "Nearest"), emr = FALSE)

Arguments

dates

A Date vector with dates

n

An integer variable with the number of units to advance

unit

A character variable describing one of several supported values; the C++ version implements expects a corresponding integer value

bdc

A character variable describing one of several supported values, the C++ version implements expects a corresponding integer value

emr

A boolean variable select end-of-month, default is ‘FALSE’

Details

This function takes a vector of dates and returns another vector of dates of the same length returning at each position the date advanced by the given number of steps in the selected time unit, also respecting a business day convention and and of month boolean switch. Currently supported values for the time unit are ‘Days’, ‘Weeks’, ‘Months’ ‘Years’, ‘Hours’, ‘Seconds’, ‘Milliseconds’ and ‘Microseconds’; all are specified as integers. Note that intra-daily units are not currently supported for advancing ‘Date’ objects. Currently supported values for the business day convention are (starting from zero): ‘Following’, ‘ModifiedFollowing’, ‘Preceding’, ‘ModifiedPreceding’, ‘Unadjusted’, ‘HalfModifiedFollowing’ and ‘Nearest’.

Value

A Date vector with dates advanced according to the selected inputs

Examples

advanceUnits(Sys.Date()+0:6, 5, "Days", "Following")

Compute number of business dates between calendar dates

Description

Compute the number of business days between dates

Usage

businessDaysBetween(from, to, includeFirst = TRUE, includeLast = FALSE)

Arguments

from

A Date vector with interval start dates

to

A Date vector with interval end dates

includeFirst

A boolean indicating if the start date is included, default is ‘TRUE’

includeLast

A boolean indicating if the end date is included, default is ‘FALSE’

Details

This function takes two vectors of start and end dates and returns another vector of the number of business days between each corresponding date pair according to the active calendar.

Value

A numeric vector with the number of business dates between the corresponding date pair

Examples

businessDaysBetween(Sys.Date() + 0:6, Sys.Date() + 3 + 0:6)

The calendars vector contains all calendar identifiers.

Description

The calendars vector contains all calendar identifiers.

Examples

head(calendars, 10)

Compute end-of-month

Description

Compute a vector of dates with end-of-month

Usage

getEndOfMonth(dates)

Arguments

dates

A Date vector with dates

Details

This function takes a vector of dates and returns another vector of dates of the same length returning at each position whether the corresponding end-of-month date in the currently active (global) calendar.

Value

A Date vector with dates which are end-of-month

Examples

getEndOfMonth(Sys.Date()+0:6)

Compute holidays or business days

Description

Compute the number of holidays (or business days) between two dates

Usage

getHolidays(from, to, includeWeekends = FALSE)

getBusinessDays(from, to)

Arguments

from

A Date object with the start date

to

A Date object with the end date

includeWeekends

A boolean indicating if weekends should be included, default is ‘FALSE’

Details

Value

A Date vector with holidays or business days between the given dates

Examples

getHolidays(Sys.Date(), Sys.Date() + 30)
