costDSVM: Calculate cost of using a specific DSVM instance of Azure for...

In Azure/AzureDSVM: Create and Manage Azure Data Science Virtual Machine(s) for Convenient Execution of Scalable and Elastic Analytics.

Description

Note if difference between time.start and time.end is less than the finest granularity, e.g., "Hourly" (we notice this is a usual case when one needs to be aware of the charges of a job that takes less than an hour), the expense will be estimated based solely on computation hour. That is, the total expense is the multiplication of computation hour and pricing rate of the requested instance.

  granularity = "Daily", currency = "USD", locale = "en-US", offerId,
  region = "US", verbose = FALSE)
