fraction -> subsecond for consistency with method name
The sentence, "A non-portable feature allows the offset to be negative on some systems.", is removed. Time before 1970 should work portably now. If localtime() doesn't work before 1970, Ruby should extrapolate it.
Time::new -> Time.new "::" for method call is not common notation now.
Time#to_i truncates subsecond
Time#to_f approximates a value in Time object
Time#to_r The sentence, "You can use this method to convert time to another Epoch.", is removed. It is not clear because no actual example of "another Epoch" is given.
Time#usec truncates fraction of microseconds.
Time#nsec truncates fraction of nanoseconds.
describe Time#inspect shows subsecond since Ruby 2.7.0.
