 % Returns a vector of doubles with the fractional part corresponding
 % to the subperiod. Used for plots and to store dates in a matrix.
 %
 % INPUTS 
-%  o A     dates object.
+% - o [dates]
 %
 % OUTPUTS  
-%  o B     A.ndat*1 vector of doubles.
-%  o C     integer scalar, the frequency (1, 4, 12 or 52).
+% - m [double] o.ndat*1 vector of doubles.
+% - f [integer] scalar, the frequency (1, 4, 12 or 52).
 %
 % REMARKS 
 %  Obviously the frequency is lost during the conversion.
