itsArith: Arithmetic Methods for Irregular Time-Series Objects
Description
Arithmetic methods for objects of class "its".
Usage
x + y
x - y
x * y
x / y
x ^ y
x x
Arguments
x,y
an object of class "its"
Value
The returned object is an object of class "its", conformable with the
inputs, and with identical time-stamps.
Details
The arithmetic operators return numeric vectors containing the result of the
element-by-element operations. The arguments must be conformable (same dimensions)
and their time-stamps must match for each row.
Note that the matrix multiplication operator,and the result of a matrix multiplication is a matrix, not an "its".
The resulting matrix can be converted back to its using the function its()
- see examples.
