It is common to refer to an academic term by its associated season: fall,
spring, or summer. This function is built to take out the step of converting
the term name to a date and then to a yeartrimester object.
Usage
seasonal_trimester(x = character(), start_term = c("Summer", "Fall", "Spring"))
Arguments
- x
A character vector of terms.
- start_term
The name of the term which starts the academic year. Must
be "Fall", "Spring", or "Summer" (the default).
Value
A yeartrimester object.
Examples
seasonal_trimester("Fall 2025")
#> <yeartrimester[1]>
#> [1] "2026 T2"
#> # Academic year starts in May.
seasonal_trimester("Fall 2025", start_term = "Fall")
#> <yeartrimester[1]>
#> [1] "2026 T1"
#> # Academic year starts in September.
