daysact
Actual number of days between dates
Description
returns
the actual number of days between NumDays
= daysact(___,EndDate
)StartDate
and
the optional argument EndDate
.
If EndDate
is earlier than StartDate
, NumDays
is
negative. Under this convention, all months contain 30 days.
Either input argument can contain multiple values, but if so,
the other must contain the same number of values or a single value
that applies to all. For example, if StartDate
is
an n-row character array of date character vectors,
then EndDate
must be an N
-by-1
vector
of integers or a single integer. NumDays
is then
an N
-by-1
vector of date numbers.
