sim_date {simtimer}

Date part of a sim_datetime

Description

sim_date() returns the date part of a sim_datetime. Therefore sim_date() calculates the number of days (24h-intervals) that have passed since origin_date. If the origin_date of sim_datetime has a time component different than 00:00:00, the 24h-intervals are correlated to this particular time component.

Usage

sim_date(sim_datetime)

Arguments

sim_datetime

A sim_datetime (integer representing the passed seconds since origin_date)

Value

the number of days (24h-intervals) that have passed since origin_date

Examples

sim_date(24*60*60-1)
# [1] 0
sim_date(24*60*60)
# [1] 1
sim_date(452*24*60*60)
# [1] 452
origin_date <- as.POSIXct("2016-01-01 00:00:00", tz = "UTC")
sim_date(as.sim_datetime(as.POSIXct("2016-01-02 00:01:00", tz = "UTC"), origin_date))
# [1] 1
