Calculates ages — get

Calculates the age of individuals at a given date, based on their date of birth. This uses lubridate functions to calculate an age, which means that leap years are also taken into account.

get_age(DOB, Date)

Arguments

DOB	vector of `Date` objects to be used as the date of birth
Date	vector of `Date` objects to be used as the date at which the age is requested

Examples

birthdays <- lubridate::dmy(c("01/01/1990", "29/02/1992", "31/12/2000", "15/06/1995"))
get_age(birthdays, lubridate::today())
#> [1] 30 28 19 25
