The type used to represent both absolute times and durations of time intervals. Absolute times are represented in the same way as time intervals, and can be thought of as time intervals starting at some fixed reference point. Their discrimination is only conceptual. It is equivalent to fromReal 0.0 . Absolute points on the time scale can be thought of as being represented as intervals starting at zeroTime .
All time values are greater than or equal to zeroTime .
The function Date.fromTimeLocal can be used to see what time zeroTime actually represents in the local timezone. Depending on the resolution of time , fractions of a microsecond may be lost. Raises Time when the result is not representable. When this number is not representable by int , the exception Overflow is raised. If the result is not representable by time , e.g., n is negative, the exception Time is raised.
