I ran across this while running some sanity checks on
time
. Quickcheck immediately found a bug, and as I'd modified the code fromstd
I knew there was a bug here as well.tl;dr this code fails (playground)
The existing code determines that 1/7 = 0 (seconds), 1/7 = 0 (nanoseconds), 1 billion / 7 = 142,857,142 (extra nanoseconds). The billion comes from multiplying the remainder of the seconds (1) by the number of nanoseconds in a second. However, this wrongly ignores any remaining nanoseconds. This PR takes that into consideration, adds a test, and also changes the roundabout way of calculating the remainder into directly computing it.
Note: This is not a rounding error. This result divides evenly.
