These are year-month-day methods for the arithmetic generics.
Notably, you cannot add days to a year-month-day. For day-based arithmetic,
first convert to a time point with as_naive_time()
or as_sys_time()
.
Usage
# S3 method for class 'clock_year_month_day'
add_years(x, n, ...)
# S3 method for class 'clock_year_month_day'
add_quarters(x, n, ...)
# S3 method for class 'clock_year_month_day'
add_months(x, n, ...)
Arguments
- x
[clock_year_month_day]
A year-month-day vector.
- n
[integer / clock_duration]
An integer vector to be converted to a duration, or a duration corresponding to the arithmetic function being used. This corresponds to the number of duration units to add.
n
may be negative to subtract units of duration.- ...
These dots are for future extensions and must be empty.
Details
Adding a single quarter with add_quarters()
is equivalent to adding
3 months.
x
and n
are recycled against each other using
tidyverse recycling rules.
Examples
x <- year_month_day(2019, 1, 1)
add_years(x, 1:5)
#> <year_month_day<day>[5]>
#> [1] "2020-01-01" "2021-01-01" "2022-01-01" "2023-01-01" "2024-01-01"
y <- year_month_day(2019, 1, 31)
# Adding 1 month to `y` generates an invalid date
y_plus <- add_months(y, 1:2)
y_plus
#> <year_month_day<day>[2]>
#> [1] "2019-02-31" "2019-03-31"
# Invalid dates are fine, as long as they are eventually resolved
# by either manually resolving, or by calling `invalid_resolve()`
# Resolve by returning the previous / next valid moment in time
invalid_resolve(y_plus, invalid = "previous")
#> <year_month_day<day>[2]>
#> [1] "2019-02-28" "2019-03-31"
invalid_resolve(y_plus, invalid = "next")
#> <year_month_day<day>[2]>
#> [1] "2019-03-01" "2019-03-31"
# Manually resolve by setting to the last day of the month
invalid <- invalid_detect(y_plus)
y_plus[invalid] <- set_day(y_plus[invalid], "last")
y_plus
#> <year_month_day<day>[2]>
#> [1] "2019-02-28" "2019-03-31"
