pywfm.misc.IWFMMiscellaneous.get_n_intervals#
- IWFMMiscellaneous.get_n_intervals(begin_date, end_date, time_interval, includes_end_date=True)#
returns the number of time intervals between a provided start date and end date
- Parameters:
begin_date (str) – IWFM format date MM/DD/YYYY_HH:MM
end_date (str) – IWFM format date MM/DD/YYYY_HH:MM
time_interval (str) – valid IWFM time interval
includes_end_date (boolean, default=True) – True adds 1 to the number of intervals to include the end_date False is the number of intervals between the two dates without including the end_date
- Returns:
number of time intervals between begin and end date
- Return type:
int
