From: Daniel DeLorme Date: 2007-08-23T10:17:28+09:00 Subject: [BUG] DateTime#sec_fraction I'm not sure if this is a problem with the documentation or the code, but DateTime#sec_fraction returns the fraction of a second as a *fraction of day*. i.e. in order to get the fraction relative to one *second* you need to do DateTime.now.sec_fraction*86400 and in order to get microseconds you need to do DateTime.now.sec_fraction*86400*1000000 Daniel
