time - Proper way to round a second-precision count-down display -
i need display time span user, in m:ss format, indicates how far in future event happpens (e.g. download finished).
now assume, event 1,3s in future. should display 0:01 or 0:02?
the former (rounding down) seems more natural in consistent hypothetical, more precise
0:01.500display.the latter avoids awkward situation display show
0:001 second, until event occurs.
is there standard on matter offers guidance?
if count down, should display ceiling.
1,7 -> 2 1,2 -> 2 1,0 -> 1 0,1 -> 1 0,0 -> 0 this way 'instant end' (no 0:00 1 second) , proper perceived remaining time: when user/player see 0:01, knows has 1 second left.
