Description Usage Arguments Value Examples

Get the base_date add a random number of days taken from a uniform distribution bounded by -max_delta and max_delta. Insure the resulting date is as least as large as the min_date.

1	obfuscateDate(baseDate, maxDelta = 30, minDate)

`baseDate`	list of Date objects with dates to be obfuscated
`maxDelta`	integer vector that is used to create min and max arguments to `runif` (`runif(n, min = 0, max = 1)`)
`minDate`	list object of Date objects that has the lower bound of resulting obfuscated dates

A vector of dates that have be obfuscated.

library(nprcgenekeepr)
someDates <- rep(as.Date(c("2009-2-16", "2016-2-16"), format = "%Y-%m-%d"),
                 10)
minBirthDate <- rep(as.Date("2009-2-16", format = "%Y-%m-%d"), 20)
obfuscateDate(someDates, 30, minBirthDate)
