Template:Annualized rate/doc

Usage

 * Syntax:
 * (If an event has occurred n times so far this year, and continues happening at the same rate, how many times will it occur in the year overall?)
 * (Allows specification of a year in the syntax, so that once the year has passed, that same value is still returned. This version is recommended.)
 * (substitute version of the first use)
 * (substitute version of the second use)


 * Examples:
 * : (returns zero; use a parameter.)
 * : (assumes current year if none specified.)
 * : (Putting in the current year helps stabilize the number for once this year is over.)
 * : (2014 has already passed, so the number entered is returned as the number for the whole year.)

This template accounts for leap years.

It assumes that the number passed as the first parameter is the count for the year up until the end of the current day.
