Open Live Script

Create an inflationcurve object using inflationcurve. 

BaseDate = datetime(2020,9,20);
InflationTimes = [0 calyears([1 2 3 4 5 7 10 20 30])]';
InflationIndexValues = [100 102 103.5 105 106.8 108.2 111.3 120.1 130.4 150.2]';
InflationDates = BaseDate + InflationTimes;
myInflationCurve = inflationcurve(InflationDates,InflationIndexValues);

Compute the index values using indexvalues.

outIndexValues = indexvalues(myInflationCurve,datetime(2023,9,20))
outIndexValues = 
105

Input Arguments
