Hifitime documentation to follow diataxis #8
Description
Inspiration from https://rhodesmill.org/skyfield/toc.html
- Calculate elapsed times and duration between epochs ? Consider epochs in different time systems, and the ambiguity that lies there. Add the rounding to different units as floats. Goal: understand that time may not be linear and depends on reference epochs and leap seconds (Jupyter notebook)
- Manage leap seconds and custom leap seconds ? Goal: explain leap seconds, introduce UT1 time scale, understand that some scales do not account for leap seconds.
How to guide:
- How to convert from a UTC time into another time zone ?
- How to convert from a UTC time into GPS week and days ?
- How to convert from a UTC time into SPICE / Ephemeris time ?
- How to iterate between two epochs ? Consider different initializations of Epochs.
