duration (Octave Tablicious v0.3.7)
Description: User manual for Tablicious for Octave.

#### 8.2.13 duration ¶

Class: duration ¶

  Represents durations or periods of time as an amount of fixed-length time (i.e. fixed-length seconds). It does not care about calendar things like months and days that vary in length over time.

  This is an attempt to reproduce the functionality of Matlab’s `duration`. It also contains some Octave-specific extensions.

Instance Variable of `duration`: ``double`` days ¶

  The underlying datenums that represent the durations, as number of (whole and fractional) days. These are uniform 24-hour days, not calendar days.

  This is a planar property: the size of `days` is the same size as the containing `duration` array object.

Instance Variable of `duration`: ``char`` Format ¶

  The format to display this `duration` in. Currently unsupported.
