tempo WSRT file on Sourceforge has out-of-order entries #18

Open dlakaplan opened 10 months ago

dlakaplan commented 10 months ago

Final entries in https://github.com/nanograv/tempo/blob/master/clock/time_wsrt.dat are not in order, fail validation. File is also pretty old.

This seems like a TEMPO bug?

Specifically, in https://sourceforge.net/p/tempo/tempo/ci/master/tree/clock/time_wsrt.dat?force=True there is:

 52999.50       0.0       -16.212 i 
 52999.55       0.0       -16.210 i 
 53000.00       0.0       -16.225 i 
 53000.05       0.0       -16.218 i 
 53000.00       0.0       -16.225 i 
 53000.05       0.0       -16.218 i 
 53000.50       0.0       -16.216 i 
 53000.55       0.0       -16.221 i

Incidentally I have a very useful very minor update to PINT that lists the first out-of-order pair of MJDs when a validation error occurs.
