How can I obtain the current exchange rate for two given currencies in matlab?
I tried this one, however it seems that the web service is no longer available.
Is there another easy way of obtaining the up-to-date currency exchange rates through a web service in matlab?
Build a local class from a currency conversion web service using CREATECLASSFROMWSDL. You can then use the web service's operations to do the conversion using the class methods. One currency conversion web service (there are many) is available at http://www.webservicex.net/CurrencyConvertor.asmx?WSDL. Here's an example of its use:
>> converter = createClassFromWsdl('http://www.webservicex.net/CurrencyConvertor.asmx?WSDL');
Retrieving document at 'http://www.webservicex.net/CurrencyConvertor.asmx?WSDL'
>> converter = CurrencyConvertor
endpoint: 'http://www.webservicex.net/CurrencyConvertor.asmx'
wsdl: 'http://www.webservicex.net/CurrencyConvertor.asmx?WSDL'
>> ConversionRate(converter, 'CAD', 'EUR')
ans =
0.7059
>> ConversionRate(converter, 'USD', 'CAD')
ans =
0.953
Note that ConversionRate returns a char array, i.e. you still have to convert the result with str2double if you want to do calculations with the exchange rate.
A list of the currency abbreviations is available at http://www.webservicex.net/ws/wsdetails.aspx?wsid=10.
This is an old question, but thought I would update the answer. I made this currency converter function in MATLAB (exchangerate.m) that utilizes the openexchangerates.org API, which is better supported and also includes historical data. Here's a description how it works (it's very simple):
This function returns exchange rates obtained from openexchangerates.org
using their API. To work correctly, one must be connected to the
Internet. The default app_id is from a free account to
openexchangerates.org, which has a limit of 1000 API requests/month. For
more flexibility, sign up for your own free or paid account and replace
the app_id value with your own id number.
Inputs:
1) base: a string denoting the base currency, which is set to have a
value of 1. If an empty string '' is provided, the default 'USD' is
used. See list of valid currency abbreviations below.
2) curr: a
string or cell array of strings denoting the currency abbreviation to
compare with the base currency. If 'all' or '' is provided as input,
then all available currencies are returned. See list of valid
currency abbreviations below.
3) date: an optional string containing
the date desired for the exchange rate (historical data may not
always be available). The input should be in the form 'YYYY-MM-DD'.
To get the latest exchange rate data, use date
= 'latest' or '', which is the default value. Historical data from 1999 and onward
Outputs:
1) rates: a number or vector indicating the exchange rate(s) between the desired currency (currencies), curr, and the base currency, base.
2) currencies: a cell array of the corresponding currency
abbreviations in rates.
3) rate_struct: a structure with field names
equal to the currency abbreviations and associated values being the
rates. This output just combines rates and currencies for
convenience.
Examples:
1) Get the latest exchange rate between Bitcoin and the US Dollar (Note: All country abbreviations are listed in the m-file)
[rates,currencies,rates_struct] = exchangerate('USD','BTC');
>> rates = 1.614e-3
>> currencies = 'BTC'
>> rates_struct =
BTC: 1.614e-3
2) Get latest exchange rates for all available currencies
[rates,currencies,rates_struct] = exchangerate();
3) Obtain exchange rates for Bitcoin, Indian rupee, and Euro using the US
Dollar as base currency on June 5, 2013
[rates,currencies,rates_struct] = exchangerate('USD',{'BTC','INR','EUR'},'2013-06-05');
>> rates = [8.246e-3; 5.672e1; 7.642e-1]
>> currencies = {'BTC';'INR';'EUR'}
>> rates_struct =
BTC: 8.246e-3
INR: 5.672e1
EUR: 7.642e-1

Main questions I have:
RegEx practices for statements that are close but not similar iterated through a list of websites when dealing with doubles and text
Should I pull all of the text then parse out what I want in the following code? Or is there a better way?
I am currently trying to extract interest rate data from different lenders using regular expression. I want to use regex because I want to be able to add more URLs as more lenders arise. I want the extracted information to basically take on the form of:
x.xx% - xx.xx% (the low - high bands of the interest rates)
Most of the websites vary in how they present this, some examples:
APR ranges from x.xx% to xx.xx%
Rates range from x.xx% to xx.xx%
x.xx% - xx.xx%
range from x.xx% (AA) to xx.xx% (HR)
Currently I am trying to just grab the paragraph the text lives in and then make substrings off of that to create the final piece of information I need (x.xx% - xx.xx%). Not sure if this is the best method, but would like to crowdsource my issue.
plcompetitors = ['https://www.lendingclub.com/loans/personal-loans',
'https://www.marcus.com/us/en/personal-loans',
'https://www.discover.com/personal-loans/',
'https://www.lightstream.com/',
'https://www.prosper.com/']
#cycle through links in array until it finds APR rates/fixed or variable using regex
for link in plcompetitors:
l = r.get(link)
l.encoding = 'utf-8'
data = l.text
soup = bs(data, 'html.parser')
paragraph = soup.body.findAll(text=re.compile('% APR'))
#using this next if statement to try and iterate through what turned up empty in the initial pass through with the first .compile statement
if paragraph == []:
paragraph = soup.body.findAll(text=re.compile('% - [0-9]'))
print(paragraph)
Which returns this:
[]

I have a request to extract specific Invoices, over the course of an year. For target invoices i have the following information to use: Invoice Number, Invoice date, Order Ref, Value and currency. I tried extracting few months at a time, but it's too much data.
Is there a way to filter on about 200 unique Invoice No in Netsuite?
Thank you,
Daniel
You can do this with a Formula(Numeric) filter in your criteria like this:
Filter: Formula (Numeric)
Description: is greater than 0
Formula: INSTR(',SLS00000101,SLS00000102,SLS00000103,SLS00000104,SLS00000105,', ',' || {tranid} || ',')
Note that the initial string is a comma separated list of document numbers that begins and ends with a comma.
I'm not sure if there is an upper limit on formula size, but I've used this pattern to find a large number of transactions when I know the document numbers or internal IDs.
Table: Customer
Hashkey: email
Other Attributes: name, address, purchasedamount, datecreated
Sample Data:
"xxx1.xxx.com", "XXXXX1", "no1.street",2500,"10-01-2017 01:02:03"
"xxx2.xxx.com", "XXXXX2", "no2.street",2000,"11-01-2017 04:05:06"
"xxx3.xxx.com", "XXXXX3", "no3.street",4050,"10-02-2017 07:08:09"
"xxx4.xxx.com", "XXXXX4", "no4.street",2800,"11-02-2017 10:11:12"
How to fetch customers, whose purchased date from "11-01-2017 00:00:00" to "10-02-2017 00:00:00".
Looking at your sample data, I don't see an easy way to do it unfortunately. I would say you need to do it in code (Scan all items and filter at the application level).
If changing the data model is an option:
Easiest and recommended approach with date / times in DynamoDB is to store is in ISO8601 format, using String data type.
ISO8601: Date and time values are ordered from the largest to smallest unit of time: year, month (or week), day, hour, minute, second, and fraction of second. The lexicographical order of the representation thus corresponds to chronological order, except for date representations involving negative years. This allows dates to be naturally sorted by, for example, DynamoDB.
If you use your Date attribute as a Sort Key / LSI, it enables you to ask DynamoDB to do the heavy lifting for querying between two dates (within a Partition Key), by using the BETWEEN comparison operator.
At present the tax seems to display based on the location of the logged in customer.
This can't work for me for 2 reasons. I have an extension that auto displays the currency based on the customers ip plus there is no option for logging in, it's guest checkout only.
So I really need it to display the correct price based on the currency displayed instead.
Does anyone have any idea where the code is for this please or how to adjust the displayed price properly?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I guess You should extend the extension You are using for displaying of currency based on IP address.
Find the line of code where the currency based on user's IP address is populated and call this:
$this->currency->set($currency_code);
where $currency_code should be a 3 character currency ISO code (e.g. USD, EUR, etc) of currency set in the administration.
This way You set the currency to use for price calculation - and that reflects the currency based on user's IP address. This currency code is then saved to session and cookie so it should work on any page within OpenCart frontend.
I think so
Returns 3-character ISO 4217 currency code for the currently set currency.
// Return when Pound Sterling is the set currency
$currency_code = $this->currency->getCode();
var_dump($currency_code); // string 'GBP' (length=3)
also you can
$this->currency->set($currency_code);
and please find currency file https://github.com/opencart/opencart/blob/master/upload/system/library/currency.php
Thanks
I think I have found the correct way to do this: Go to file system/library/tax.php.
Line 27:
if(!$reg){
if($currentCurrency == "CHF"){
$country_id = 204;
}else if($currentCurrency == "EUR"){
$country_id = 81;
}
}
This will set the country the user is in according to the selected currency and will set the country for tax calculation.
I'm not sure what the difference between description and lineitem. Is line item a comma separated list of the products bought? I would like to know the variables max length and data type. Also, like to know what field appears in users credit card statement, description or lineitem. Cant find any good documentation.
The description is your description of the transaction. It can be something like, "First subscription payment" or, "Refund for transaction #123456". It may be up to 255 characters (no symbols). See page 24 of the AIM guide for more information,.
Line items are for adding each item or service the user purchased. This includes name, price, quantity, etc. It's basically so you have a record of what the purchase was for. Line items have the following format:
x_line_item
Optional
Value: Any string
Format: Line item values must be delimited by a bracketed pipe <|>
Itemized order information
Item ID<|>
The ID assigned to an item.
Format: Up to 31 characters
<|>item name<|>
A short description of an item.
Format: Up to 31 characters
<|>item description<|>
A detailed description of an item.
Format: Up to 255 characters
<|>itemX quantity<|>
The quantity of an item.
Format: Up to two decimal places
Must be a positive number
<|>item price (unit cost)<|>
Cost of an item per unit, excluding tax, freight, and duty.
Format: Up to two decimal places
Must be a positive number
The dollar sign ($) is not allowed when submitting delimited information.
<|>itemX
taxable
Indicates whether the item is subject to tax.
Format: TRUE, FALSE, T, F, YES, NO, Y, N, 1, 0
Neither are required for a transaction to be processed or appear on your customers' credit card statements. Both exist to allow you to keep your transaction better organized in your Authorize.Net account.
