Data management tools

IrisPie implements the following basic types of objects to support and streamline data management in modeling tasks:

  • Databox objects for unstructured data storage,

  • Time Series objects for time series manipulation,

  • Time Period objects for time period manipulation and arithmetic,

  • Time Span objects for spans of multiple time periods,

  • Time Frequency enumeration for user convenience of referring to time frequencies.

While similar functionality is available in other third-party packages or in standard Python libraries, the IrisPie implementation is specifically geared towards flexible and fluid use with macroeconomic and financial data.
