deb_decimal: A decimalized class for pounds, shillings, and pence values

In jessesadler/debvctrs: Tutorial for building S3 vectors with vctrs

Description

User-facing function to create deb_decimal vector.

Usage

deb_decimal(x = double(), unit = c("l", "s", "d"), bases = c(20, 12))

Arguments

x	A numeric vector representing the decimalized values of a non-decimal currency.
unit	A character vector of length one indicating the unit for the decimalized values, either "l" (libra, the default), "s" (solidus), or "d" (denarius).
bases	Numeric vector of length 2 used to specify the bases for the solidus or s and denarius or d units. Default is c(20, 12), which conforms to the most widely used system of 1 pound = 20 shillings and 1 shilling = 12 pence.

Examples

deb_decimal(c(5.25, 3.825, 8.5))

# Set the unit of the deb_decimal vector
deb_decimal(c(105, 76.5, 170), unit = "s")
deb_decimal(c(1260, 918, 240), unit = "d")
