You are right :-) I am trying to write a scientific software that does
some satellite geodesy computations (involving the speed of light),
and I would prefer to keep all the times float, while retaining the
time and time interval arithmetics and format transformation
capabilities of datetime. The system time granularity, that is of
cause limited, is not a problem at all, as the data are to be
initialized by constructing instances from external data.

Datetime with float seconds

[kpal]

Hello Everybody,

The standard datetime has 1 microsecond granularity. My application
needs finer time resolution, preferably float seconds. Is there an
alternative to the out-of-the-box datetime? Timezone support is not
essential.

Thanks,
