If `beginDate <= endDate`, then the result is non‐negative. Note that reversing the order of `beginDate` and `endDate` negates the result; specifically, `|yearsDiff(b, e) + yearsDiff(e, b)| <= 1.0e‐15` for all dates `b` and `e`. == Synopsis Declared in `<bbldc_terminatedbasicdaycountadapter.h>` [source,cpp,subs="verbatim,replacements,macros,-callouts"] ---- virtual double yearsDiff( xref:BloombergLP/bdlt/Date.adoc[bdlt::Date] const& beginDate, xref:BloombergLP/bdlt/Date.adoc[bdlt::Date] const& endDate) const override; ---- [.small]#Created with https://www.mrdocs.com[MrDocs]#
