NameDescription
daysDiff Return the (signed) number of days between the specified beginDate and endDate according to the specified day-count convention. The behavior is undefined unless isSupported(convention). If beginDate <= endDate then the result is non-negative. Note that reversing the order of beginDate and endDate negates the result.
isSupported Return true if the specified convention is valid for use in daysDiff and yearsDiff, and false otherwise.
yearsDiff Return the (signed fractional) number of years between the specified beginDate and endDate according to the specified day-count convention. If beginDate <= endDate then the result is non-negative. The behavior is undefined unless isSupported(convention). Note that reversing the order of beginDate and endDate negates the result; specifically, |yearsDiff(b, e, c) + yearsDiff(e, b, c)| <= 1.0e-15 for all dates b and e, and day-count conventions c.
