Checks whether the partial is contiguous.

A partial is contiguous if one field starts where another ends.

For example LocalDate is contiguous because DayOfMonth has the same range (Month) as the unit of the next field (MonthOfYear), and MonthOfYear has the same range (Year) as the unit of the next field (Year).

Similarly, LocalTime is contiguous, as it consists of MillisOfSecond, SecondOfMinute, MinuteOfHour and HourOfDay (note how the names of each field 'join up').

However, a Year/HourOfDay partial is not contiguous because the range field Day is not equal to the next field Year. Similarly, a DayOfWeek/DayOfMonth partial is not contiguous because the range Month is not equal to the next field Day.

Params:
  • partial – the partial to check

Calculates the astronomical Julian Day for an instant.

The Julian day is a well-known system of time measurement for scientific use by the astronomy community. It expresses the interval of time in days and fractions of a day since January 1, 4713 BC (Julian) Greenwich noon.

Each day starts at midday (not midnight) and time is expressed as a fraction. Thus the fraction 0.25 is 18:00. equal to one quarter of the day from midday to midday.

Note that this method has nothing to do with the day-of-year.

Params:
  • epochMillis – the epoch millis from 1970-01-01Z
Returns:the astronomical Julian Day represented by the specified instant
