Lagged 'timeDate' Differences
Returns suitably lagged and iterated differences.
## S3 method for class 'timeDate' diff(x, lag = 1, differences = 1, ...)
x |
an object of class |
lag |
an integer indicating which lag to use. |
differences |
an integer indicating the order of the difference. |
... |
arguments passed to other methods. |
For the function, diff.timeDate, if x is a vector
of length n and differences=1, then the computed result
is equal to the successive differences x[(1+lag):n] - x[1:(n-lag)].
If difference is larger than one this algorithm is applied
recursively to x. Note that the returned value is a vector
which is shorter than x.
