businessDaysBetween {RQuantLib} | R Documentation |
The businessDaysBetween
function evaluates two given dates in the context
of the given calendar, and returns a vector that gives the number of
business day between.
businessDaysBetween(calendar="TARGET", from=Sys.Date(), to = Sys.Date() + 5, includeFirst = 1, includeLast = 0)
calendar |
A string identifying one of the supported QuantLib calendars, see Details for more |
from |
A vector (or scalar) of Date types. |
to |
A vector (or scalar) of Date types. |
includeFirst |
boolean that indicates whether the calculation should include the first day. Default = true |
includeLast |
Default = false |
The calendars are coming from QuantLib, and the QuantLib documentation should be consulted for details.
Currently, the following strings are recognised: TARGET (a default calendar), Canada and Canada/Settlement, Canada/TSX, Germany and Germany/FrankfurtStockExchange, Germany/Settlement, Germany/Xetra, Germany/Eurex, Italy and Italy/Settlement, Italy/Exchange, Japan, UnitedKingdom and UnitedKingdom/Settlement, UnitedKingdom/Exchange, UnitedKingdom/Metals, UnitedStates and UnitedStates/Settlement, UnitedStates/NYSE, UnitedStates/GovernmentBond, UnitedStates/NERC.
(In case of multiples entries per country, the country default is listed right after the country itself. Using the shorter form is equivalent.)
An named vector of number.
The interface might change in future release as QuantLib
stabilises its own API.
