  2. Decimal time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_time

    Sometimes in official records, decimal hours were divided into tenths, or décimes, instead of minutes. One décime is equal to 10 decimal minutes, which is nearly equal to a quarter-hour (15 minutes) in standard time. Thus, "five hours two décimes" equals 5.2 decimal hours, roughly 12:30 p.m. in standard time.

  3. Metric time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metric_time

    t. e. Metric time is the measure of time intervals using the metric system. The modern SI system defines the second as the base unit of time, and forms multiples and submultiples with metric prefixes such as kiloseconds and milliseconds. Other units of time – minute, hour, and day – are accepted for use with SI, but are not part of it.

  4. UTC offset - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTC_offset

    The UTC offset is the difference in hours and minutes between Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) and local solar time, at a particular place. This difference is expressed with respect to UTC and is generally shown in the format ± [hh]: [mm], ± [hh] [mm], or ± [hh]. So if the time being described is two hours ahead of UTC (such as in Kigali ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positional_notation

    Positional notation (or place-value notation, or positional numeral system) usually denotes the extension to any base of the Hindu–Arabic numeral system (or decimal system ). More generally, a positional system is a numeral system in which the contribution of a digit to the value of a number is the value of the digit multiplied by a factor ...

    As of March 2024, π has been calculated to 105 trillion decimal digits. The last 100 decimal digits of the latest world record computation are: [1] Graph showing how the record precision of numerical approximations to pi measured in decimal places (depicted on a logarithmic scale), evolved in human history.
