public class TimeDiscretization
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.io.Serializable, TimeDiscretizationInterface

This class represents a set of discrete points in time.
It handles the mapping from time indices to time points and back. It uses a time tick size ("quantum") of 1.0 / (365.0 * 24.0) (which corresponds to one hour if 1.0 is a non-leap-year): Times are rounded to the nearest multiple of 1.0 / (365.0 * 24.0). Objects of this class are immutable.
