Classes¶
Class Duration
¶
class Duration( string_repr )
Defines generally usable durations for nanosecond precision valid for 32,768 centuries in either direction, and only on 80 bits / 10 octets.
Important conventions¶
- The negative durations can be mentally modeled "BC" years. One hours before 01 Jan 0000, it was "-1" years but 365 days and 23h into the current day. It was decided that the nanoseconds corresponds to the nanoseconds into the current century. In other words, a duration with centuries = -1 and nanoseconds = 0 is a greater duration (further from zero) than centuries = -1 and nanoseconds = 1. Duration zero minus one nanosecond returns a century of -1 and a nanosecond set to the number of nanoseconds in one century minus one. That difference is exactly 1 nanoseconds, where the former duration is "closer to zero" than the latter. As such, the largest negative duration that can be represented sets the centuries to i16::MAX and its nanoseconds to NANOSECONDS_PER_CENTURY.
- It was also decided that opposite durations are equal, e.g. -15 minutes == 15 minutes. If the direction of time matters, use the signum function.
Methods¶
Method abs
¶
def abs( self, / )
Returns the absolute value of this duration
Method approx
¶
def approx( self, / )
Rounds this duration to the largest units represented in this duration.
This is useful to provide an approximate human duration. Under the hood, this function uses round
,
so the "tipping point" of the rounding is half way to the next increment of the greatest unit.
As shown below, one example is that 35 hours and 59 minutes rounds to 1 day, but 36 hours and 1 minute rounds
to 2 days because 2 days is closer to 36h 1 min than 36h 1 min is to 1 day.
Method ceil
¶
def ceil( self, /, duration )
Ceils this duration to the closest provided duration
This simply floors then adds the requested duration
Method decompose
¶
def decompose( self, / )
Decomposes a Duration in its sign, days, hours, minutes, seconds, ms, us, ns

¶
def epsilon()
Method floor
¶

Method min
¶
def min( self, /, other )
Returns the minimum of the two durations.
use hifitime::TimeUnits;
let d0 = 20.seconds();
let d1 = 21.seconds();
assert_eq!(d0, d1.min(d0));
assert_eq!(d0, d0.min(d1));
Note: this uses a pointer to self
which will be copied immediately because Python requires a pointer.

Method min_positive
¶

Algorithm¶
Given the embedded sine functions in the equation to compute the difference between TDB and TAI from the number of TDB seconds past J2000, one cannot solve the revert the operation analytically. Instead, we iterate until the value no longer changes.
- Assume that the TAI duration is in fact the TDB seconds from J2000.
- Offset to J2000 because
Epoch
stores everything in the J1900 but the TDB duration is in J2000. - Compute the offset
g
due to the TDB computation with the current value of the TDB seconds (defined in step 1). - Subtract that offset to the latest TDB seconds and store this as a new candidate for the true TDB seconds value.
- Compute the difference between this candidate and the previous one. If the difference is less than one nanosecond, stop iteration.
- Set the new candidate as the TDB seconds since J2000 and loop until step 5 breaks the loop, or we've done five iterations.
- At this stage, we have a good approximation of the TDB seconds since J2000.
- Reverse the algorithm given that approximation: compute the
g
offset, compute the difference between TDB and TAI, add the TT offset (32.184 s), and offset by the difference between J1900 and J2000.
