tidy_prices: Formats raw price data.

Description

Tidies raw prices and returns a tidied, usable data frame. Raw data should be structured identically to that produced by get_prices(), as this function depends on that structure.

Usage

Value

data.frame of cleaned prices

Arguments

x

Raw daily data, as produced by get_prices()

Functions

• tidy_prices(): combines relevant columns from the original price data set. Convert certain columns into character in order to bypass the warning generated by dplyr::bind_rows()

Details
