get_year: Get the assessment year

In iantaylor-NOAA/Lingcod_2021: Estimate the Status of Lingcod off the US West Coast in 2021

Get the assessment year

Description

Get the assessment year based on the current month. If the current month is past June, then it is more than likely that you are working on an assessment for next year and thus the assessment year would be current year + 1.

Usage

get_year(incrementafter = "September")

Arguments

incrementafter

A character or numeric value representing the last month you would be working on an assessment for the current year. The default, "September", leads to the returned value being the next year if the current month is October or later. If using the character version, it must be the full month name, though case is ignored.

Value

An integer object representing the current year.
