(** Computations with the Temps Atomique International (TAI) timescale. *)
(** {6 Overview}
This module defines an abstract type and associated functions for
computations with values representing epochs in the Temps Atomique
International (TAI) timescale. Values are represented internally with the
TAI64 format defined by Dan Bernstein, and support precision to the nearest
second.
Functions are provided that:
- acquire the current time in TAI64 format.
- compare, add and subtract values.
- convert between TAI64 values and a portable external format called
the "TAI64 label", which is essentially an array of eight octets.
- convert between TAI64 values and the float values returned by the
[Unix.time] function.
Constants are also provided that define the boundaries of valid TAI64
representations.
{b Warning:} This implementation obtains the current time of day using the
POSIX [time()] function, which returns a value based on the UTC timescale
(but with leap seconds "elided" in a way that makes conversions between
POSIX time, Standard Time and TAI a perilous undertaking). See the
{!Cf_stdtime} module for details.

(** {6 Types} *)
(** Abstract values of TAI64 type *)
type t
(** {6 Exceptions} *)
exception Range_error (** Result not representable in TAI64 format. *)
exception Label_error (** Input is not a valid TAI64 label *)
(** {6 Functions} *)
(** A total ordering function, defined so that the [Cf_tai64] module has the
signature of the {!Cf_ordered.Total_T} module type. [compare a b] compares
two TAI64 values and returns either [-1], [0], or [1] depending on the
relative total ordering of the values.
*)
val compare: t -> t -> int
(** Returns the current time in TAI64, obtained by reading the current time
from the POSIX [time()] function, and adjusting for leap seconds.
(Currently, the leap seconds table is hardcoded into the library, and the
most recent leap second announcement was for Dec 31, 1998.)
*)
val now: unit -> t
(** The earliest TAI epoch representable in the TAI64 format. The TAI64 label
is [0000000000000000].
*)
val first: t
(** The latest TAI epoch representable in the TAI64 format. The TAI64 label
is [7fffffffffffffff].
*)
val last: t
(** Converts a TAI64 value to a value consistent with the result of calling the
[Unix.gettimeofday] function.
*)
val to_unix_time: t -> float
(** Converts a value consistent with the result of calling the [Unix.time]
function into a TAI64 value.
*)
val of_unix_time: float -> t
(** Returns a string of 8 characters containing the TAI64 label corresponding
to the TAI64 value of its argument.
*)
val to_label: t -> string
(** Interprets the argument as a TAI64 label and returns the corresponding
TAI64 value. Raises [Label_error] if the label is not a valid TAI64 label.
*)
val of_label: string -> t
(** Add seconds to a TAI64 value. Raises [Range_error] if the result is not
a valid TAI64 value.
*)
val add: t -> int -> t
(** Add seconds to a TAI64 value. Raises [Range_error] if the result is not
a valid TAI64 value.
*)
val add_int32: t -> int32 -> t
(** Add seconds to a TAI64 value. Raises [Range_error] if the result is not
a valid TAI64 value.
*)
val add_int64: t -> int64 -> t
(** Subtract one TAI64 value from another. [sub t0 t1] returns the number of
seconds before [t0] that [t1] denotes.
*)
val sub: t -> t -> int64
(**/**)
(** The TAI64 value defining the beginning of the TAI64 epoch, i.e. 00:00:10,
01 Jan 1970 UTC. The TAI64 label is [4000000000000000].
*)
val epoch: t
(** The TAI epoch marking the start of the Modified Julian Day scale, i.e.
00:00:00, 17 Nov 1858 TAI. The TAI64 label is [3fffffff2efbbf8a].
*)
val mjd_epoch: t
(** Used by {!Cf_stdtime} for conversions from ISO 8601 timestamps to TAI64. *)
val leapsec_add: t -> bool -> t
(** Used by {!Cf_stdtime} for conversions from TAI64 to ISO 8601 timestamps. *)
val leapsec_sub: t -> bool * t
