[R] Bloomberg API functions BAddPeriods Binterpol Bcountperiods in RBloomberg
Hello, These functions are not available in RBloomberg. As far as I can tell, Bloomberg does not expose these functions in the general API; they are specific to the Excel version. R has other mechanisms for performing date arithmetic, both in the Date class and the POSIXct/POSIXlt classes. This won't help with calendar conventions, but it's a start. Also, R's approx function can be used for interpolation.
