date-and-date-time-shifting: Shifting: date and date-time

Description

date_shift() shifts x to the target weekday. You can shift to the next or previous weekday. If x is currently on the target weekday, you can choose to leave it alone or advance it to the next instance of the target.

There are separate help pages for shifting dates and date-times:

• dates (Date)

• date-times (POSIXct/POSIXlt)

Usage

date_shift(x, target, ..., which = "next", boundary = "keep")

Value

x shifted to the target weekday.

Arguments

x

target

[weekday]

A weekday created from weekday() to target.

Generally this is length 1, but can also be the same length as x.
