Essentially a wrapper to endpoints
with the appropriate
period specified; the resulting value derived from counting the
endpoints
As a compromise between simplicity and accuracy, the results will always round up to the nearest complete period. So n**** - 1 will return the completed periods.
For finer grain detail one should call a higher frequency n**** function.
An alternative summary can be found with periodicity
and unclass(periodicity(x))
.
