Get a ladybug DataCollection representing this schedule at a given timestep.

This DataCollection can be used to visualize timeseries schedule values over the entire period of a simulation using a component like the "LB Hourly Plot".

This DataCollection can also be used in the crafting of conditional statements with the ladybug components. For example, making a psychrometric chart of zone temperature/humidity for only the hours that the occupancy schedule is above a certain threshold.

## Inputs

* **schedule \[Required]**

  A ScheduleRuleSet or SchedileFixedInterval for which a DataCollection of timeseries schedule values will be produced. This can also be the identifier of a Schedule to be looked up in the schedule library.&#x20;
* **analysis\_period**

  An optional AnalysisPeriod to set the start and end datetimes of the resulting DataCollection. The timestep of this AnalysisPeriod will also be used to determine the timestep of the resulting DataCollection.&#x20;
* **week\_start\_day**

  An optional text string to set the start day of the week of the schedule timeseries data. Default: Sunday. Choose from the following:

  * Sunday
  * Monday
  * Tuesday
  * Wednesday
  * Thursday
  * Friday
  * Saturday
* **holidays**

  An optional list of strings (eq: 25 Dec) to represent the holidays in the resulting timeseries. Holiday schedules will be used for these dates in the resulting timeseries.&#x20;

## Outputs

* **data**

  A ladybug DataCollection representing the timeseries values of the schedule. This can be used to visualize timeseries schedule values over the entire period of a simulation using a component like the "LB Hourly Plot".&#x20;
