Suppose you have a date encoder that encodes just ‘day of week’ and minutes in the day. So it might encode "Thursday 180 minutes (for 3:AM on Thursday). So the encode buffer is really a concatenation of the representation for day-of-week and the representation for ‘minutes’. When you use a “SD…

I found out (by doing some more coding) that the answer should have been obvious. If, for example, you have a composite encoder lets say a century encoder, where you encode the century in a separate subpart of your encoder than the ‘day’ or the ‘minute’, then one little error in the century means a…

We call it a “time of day encoder”, not a “minute of day” encoder, because minutes aren’t really represented. It’s just a sliding window for the progression of time through the day. It’s not really good to try to get minute accuracy out of it. This type of datetime encoding is not precise, but encod…
