calendar_narrow {clock}

Narrow a calendar to a less precise precision

Description

calendar_narrow() narrows x to the specified precision. It does so by dropping components that represent a precision that is finer than precision.

Each calendar has its own help page describing the precisions that you can narrow to:

• year-month-day

• year-month-weekday

• year-week-day

• iso-year-week-day

• year-quarter-day

• year-day

Usage

calendar_narrow(x, precision)

Arguments

x

⁠[calendar]⁠

A calendar vector.

precision

⁠[character(1)]⁠

A precision. Allowed precisions are dependent on the calendar used.

Details

A subsecond precision x cannot be narrowed to another subsecond precision. You cannot narrow from, say, "nanosecond" to "millisecond" precision. clock operates under the philosophy that once you have set the subsecond precision of a calendar, it is "locked in" at that precision. If you expected this to use integer division to divide the nanoseconds by 1e6 to get to millisecond precision, you probably want to convert to a time point first, and use time_point_floor().

Value

x narrowed to the supplied precision.

Examples

# Hour precision
x <- year_month_day(2019, 1, 3, 4)
x

# Narrowed to day precision
calendar_narrow(x, "day")

# Or month precision
calendar_narrow(x, "month")
