Example:

COUPNUM("2017-01-25"; "2019-11-15"; 2; 1)

returns 6. A bond is originally issued on 15 November 2009, with a ten-year term; the date of maturity is 15 November 2019. You subsequently purchase it on the secondary market, with a settlement date of 25 January 2017. Interest is paid half-yearly (frequency is 2); thus interest is due on the 15 May and the 15 November each year, during the bond's term. Interest is paid 6 times: on 15 May 2017, 15 November 2017, 15 May 2018, 15 November 2018, 15 May 2019 and 15 November 2019.
