fractional_width is the number of fractional decimal digits
represented by precision[.](#1.sentence-1)
fractional_width has the value
of the smallest possible integer in the range [0, 18] such thatprecision will exactly represent all values of Duration[.](#1.sentence-2)
If no such value of fractional_width exists, thenfractional_width is 6[.](#1.sentence-3)
[*Example [1](#example-1)*:
See Table [132](#tab:time.hms.width "Table 132: Examples for fractional_width") for some durations,
the resulting fractional_width, and
the formatted fractional second output of Duration{1}[.](#1.sentence-4)

*Effects*: Constructs an object of type hh_mm_ss which represents the Duration d with precision precision[.](#3.sentence-1)
- [(3.1)](#3.1)
Initializes is_neg with d < Duration::zero()[.](#3.1.sentence-1)
- [(3.2)](#3.2)
Initializes h with duration_cast(abs(d))[.](#3.2.sentence-1)
- [(3.3)](#3.3)
Initializes m with duration_cast(abs(d) - hours())[.](#3.3.sentence-1)
- [(3.4)](#3.4)
Initializes s with duration_cast(abs(d) - hours() - minutes())[.](#3.4.sentence-1)
- [(3.5)](#3.5)
If treat_as_floating_point_v is true,
initializes ss with abs(d) - hours() - minutes() - seconds()[.](#3.5.sentence-1)
Otherwise, initializes ss with duration_cast(abs(d) - hours() - minutes() - seconds())[.](#3.5.sentence-2)
[*Note [1](#note-1)*:
When precision::rep is integral andprecision::period is ratio<1>,subseconds() always returns a value equal to 0s[.](#3.sentence-2)
