Performs basic arithmetic operations between two durations or between a duration and a tick count.

1) Converts the two durations to their common type and creates a duration whose tick count is the sum of the tick counts after conversion.
2) Converts the two durations to their common type and creates a duration whose tick count is the rhs number of ticks subtracted from the lhs number of ticks after conversion.
3-4) Converts the duration d to one whose rep is the common type between Rep1 and Rep2, and multiples the number of ticks after conversion by s. These overloads participate in overload resolution only if s is convertible to typename std::common_type<Rep1, Rep2>::type.
5) Converts the duration d to one whose rep is the common type between Rep1 and Rep2, and divides the number of ticks after conversion by s. This overload participates in overload resolution only if s is convertible to typename std::common_type<Rep1, Rep2>::type and Rep2 is not a specialization of duration.
6) Converts the two durations to their common type and divides the tick count of lhs after conversion by the tick count of rhs after conversion. Note that the return value of this operator is not a duration.
7) Converts the duration d to one whose rep is the common type between Rep1 and Rep2, and creates a duration whose tick count is the remainder of the division of the tick count, after conversion, by s. This overload participates in overload resolution only if s is convertible to typename std::common_type<Rep1, Rep2>::type and Rep2 is not a specialization of duration.
8) Converts the two durations to their common type and creates a duration whose tick count is the remainder of the tick counts after conversion.

Parameters

lhs - duration on the left-hand side of the operator
rhs - duration on the right-hand side of the operator
d - the duration argument for mixed-argument operators
s - non-duration argument for mixed-argument operators

Return value

Assuming that CD is the function return type and CR<A, B> = std::common_type<A, B>::type, then:

1) CD(CD(lhs).count() + CD(rhs).count())
2) CD(CD(lhs).count() - CD(rhs).count())
3-4) CD(CD(d).count() * s)
5) CD(CD(d).count() / s).
6) CD(lhs).count() / CD(rhs).count() (the return type of this operator is not a duration)
7) CD(CD(d).count() % s)
8) CD(CD(lhs).count() % CD(rhs).count())

Example

#include <chrono>
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
    // simple arithmetic
    std::chrono::seconds s = std::chrono::hours(1) 
                             + 2*std::chrono::minutes(10)
                             + std::chrono::seconds(70)/10;
 
    std::cout << "1 hour + 2*10 min + 70/10 sec = " << s.count() << " seconds\n";
 
    // difference between dividing a duration by a number
    // and dividing a duration by another duration
    std::cout << "Dividing that by 2 minutes gives "
              << s / std::chrono::minutes(2) << '\n';
    std::cout << "Dividing that by 2 gives "
              << (s / 2).count() << " seconds\n";
 
   // the remainder operator is useful in determining where in a time
   // frame is this particular duration, e.g. to break it down into hours,
   // minutes, and seconds:
   std::cout << s.count() << " seconds is "
             << std::chrono::duration_cast<std::chrono::hours>(
                    s
                ).count() << " hours, "
             << std::chrono::duration_cast<std::chrono::minutes>(
                    s % std::chrono::hours(1)
                ).count() << " minutes, "
             << std::chrono::duration_cast<std::chrono::seconds>(
                    s % std::chrono::minutes(1)
                ).count() << " seconds\n";
}

Output:

1 hour + 2*10 min + 70/10 sec = 4807 seconds
Dividing that by 2 minutes gives 40
Dividing that by 2 gives 2403 seconds
4807 seconds is 1 hours, 20 minutes, 7 seconds
