otp.Nano#

Nano(n)#

Object representing nanosecond’s datetime offset.

Can be added to or subtracted from:

Parameters

n (int, Column, Operation) – Offset integer value or column of Source. The only Operation supported is subtracting one datetime column from another. See example below.

Examples

Add to or subtract from otp.datetime object:

>>> otp.datetime(2012, 12, 12, 12) + otp.Nano(1)
2012-12-12 12:00:00.000000001
>>> otp.datetime(2012, 12, 12, 12) - otp.Nano(1)
2012-12-12 11:59:59.999999999

Use offset in columns:

>>> t = otp.Tick(A=1)
>>> t['T'] = otp.datetime(2012, 12, 12, 12)
>>> t['T'] += otp.Nano(t['A'])
>>> otp.run(t)
        Time                             T  A
0 2003-12-01 2012-12-12 12:00:00.000000001  1

Use it to calculate difference between two dates:

>>> t = otp.Tick(A=otp.dt(2022, 1, 1), B=otp.dt(2022, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1))
>>> t['DIFF'] = otp.Nano(t['B'] - t['A'])
>>> otp.run(t)
        Time           A                    B        DIFF
0 2003-12-01  2022-01-01  2022-01-01 00:00:01  1000000000
