[jira] [Commented] (ARROW-16066) [C++] Function to return the number of seconds in a year

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-16066?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17514311#comment-17514311 ] 

Antoine Pitrou commented on ARROW-16066:
----------------------------------------

AFAIU, Unix-like timestamps don't have leap seconds, so it all comes down to number of days per year :-)

> Could we/ should we have such a function? It would make some calculations easier and more consistent + it would help deal with some edge cases (such a leap seconds).
