Arithmetic: year-month-weekday

Description

These are year-month-weekday methods for the arithmetic generics.

• add_years()

• add_quarters()

• add_months()

Notably, you cannot add days to a year-month-weekday. 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_weekday'
add_years(x, n, ...)

## S3 method for class 'clock_year_month_weekday'
add_quarters(x, n, ...)

## S3 method for class 'clock_year_month_weekday'
add_months(x, n, ...)

Arguments

x	⁠[clock_year_month_weekday]⁠ A year-month-weekday 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.

Value

x after performing the arithmetic.

Examples

# 2nd Friday in January, 2019
x <- year_month_weekday(2019, 1, clock_weekdays$friday, 2)
x

add_months(x, 1:5)

# These don't necessarily correspond to the same day of the month
as_year_month_day(add_months(x, 1:5))
