Syntax

NumDays = days360isda(StartDate,EndDate)

Description

NumDays = days360isda(StartDate,EndDate) returns the number of days between StartDate and EndDate based on a 360-day year (that is, all months contain 30 days) and is International Swap Dealer Association (ISDA) compliant. If EndDate is earlier than StartDate, NumDays is negative. Under this convention, all months contain 30 days.

Either input argument can contain multiple values, but if so, the other must contain the same number of values or a single value that applies to all. For example, if StartDate is an n-row datetime, then EndDate must be an N-by-1 vector of integers or a single integer. NumDays is then an N-by-1 vector of date numbers.

Open Live Script

Determine the NumDays using date character vectors for StartDate and EndDate for the month of January. 

StartDate = '1-Jan-2002';
EndDate = '1-Feb-2002';
NumDays = days360isda(StartDate, EndDate)
NumDays = 
30

Determine the NumDays in the month of January using datetimes for StartDate and EndDate. 

NumDays = days360isda(datetime(2002,1,1), datetime(2002,2,1))
NumDays = 
30

Determine the NumDays using a datatime array for EndDate. 

MoreDays = [datetime(2000,3,15) ; datetime(2000,4,15) ; datetime(2000,6,15)];
NumDays = days360isda(datetime(2000,1,15), MoreDays)
NumDays = 3×1

Start date, specified as a scalar or an N-by-1 or 1-by-N vector using a datetime array, string array, or date character vectors.

To support existing code, days360isda also accepts serial date numbers as inputs, but they are not recommended.

Data Types: char | string | datetime

End date, specified as a scalar or an N-by-1 or 1-by-N vector using a datetime array, string array, or date character vectors.
