Bug #18680
closedThe documentation for File::Stat#ctime (for example) says: stat.ctime -> aTime
Status:

3.1.1 but it is in the latest git repo
Description
I think it returns Time (not aTime). This is true for three of the four "time" methods.
I would not mind making a pull request if this would be helpful.

I guess that "aTime" means "a Time" or "an instance of Time". There is no strict rule for writing rdoc AFAIK, but I don't think it is very common to write a class constant name to represent a return instance type. I wonder if -> time
is good.

Yea. The #atime method has "-> time" ... whatever is decided, the four methods: #atime, #ctime, #mtime, and #birthtime should all have the same doc.
