monthEnd

Syntax

monthEnd(X, [offset], [n=1])

Arguments

X is a scalar/vector of data type DATE, DATEHOUR, DATETIME, TIMESTAMP or NANOTIMESTAMP.

offset is a scalar of the same data type as X. It must be no greater than the minimum value of X. The default value is the minimum value of X.

n is a positive integer. The default value is 1.

Details

Return the last day of the month that X belongs to.

If parameter offset is specified, the result is updated every n months. Parameter offset works only if parameter n>1.
