NAME¶

std::chrono::round(std::chrono::duration) - std::chrono::round(std::chrono::duration)

Synopsis¶

Defined in header <chrono>
template< class ToDuration, class Rep, class Period >
constexpr ToDuration round( const std::chrono::duration<Rep, Period>& (since C++17)
d );

Returns the value t representable in ToDuration that is the closest to d. If there
are two such values, returns the even value (that is, the value t such that t % 2 ==
0).

The function does not participate in the overload resolution unless ToDuration is a
specialization of std::chrono::duration and
std::chrono::treat_as_floating_point_v<typename ToDuration::rep> is false.

Parameters¶

d - duration to convert

Return value¶

d rounded to the nearest duration of type ToDuration, rounding to even in halfway
cases.

Possible implementation¶

namespace detail
{
template<class> inline constexpr bool is_duration_v = false;
template<class Rep, class Period> inline constexpr bool is_duration_v<
std::chrono::duration<Rep, Period>> = true;
}

template<class To, class Rep, class Period,
class = std::enable_if_t<detail::is_duration_v<To> &&
!std::chrono::treat_as_floating_point_v<typename To::rep>>>
constexpr To round(const std::chrono::duration<Rep, Period>& d)
{
To t0 = std::chrono::floor<To>(d);
To t1 = t0 + To{1};
auto diff0 = d - t0;
auto diff1 = t1 - d;
if (diff0 == diff1)
{
if (t0.count() & 1)
return t1;
return t0;
}
else if (diff0 < diff1)
return t0;
return t1;
}

Example¶

// Run this code

#include <chrono>
#include <iomanip>
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
using namespace std::chrono_literals;
std::cout << "Duration\tFloor\tRound\tCeil\n";
for (using Sec = std::chrono::seconds;
auto const d : {+4999ms, +5000ms, +5001ms, +5499ms, +5500ms, +5999ms,
-4999ms, -5000ms, -5001ms, -5499ms, -5500ms, -5999ms})
std::cout << std::showpos << d << "\t\t"
<< std::chrono::floor<Sec>(d) << '\t'
<< std::chrono::round<Sec>(d) << '\t'
<< std::chrono::ceil <Sec>(d) << '\n';
}
