Method Calendar.Time.TimeofDay()->julian_day()
- Method
julian_day
float julian_day()
- Description
-
This calculates the corresponding julian day,
from the time range. Note that the calculated day
is the beginning of the period, and is a float -
julian day standard says .00 is midday, 12:00 pm.
- Note
-
Normal pike (ie, 32 bit) floats (without --with-double-precision)
has a limit of about 7 digits, and since we are about
julian day 2500000, the precision on time of day is very limited.
