obfucateDate adds a random number of days bounded by plus and minus max delta

Description

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.

Usage

obfuscateDate(baseDate, maxDelta = 30, minDate)

Arguments

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

Value

A vector of dates that have be obfuscated.

Examples

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)
