So, if you blew the whistle at 0:05.0 (and were looking at the clock at the time), and the timer stopped the clock at 0:04.0, you'd leave that on the clock.

And, to someone else's question about hundredths of seconds, there's a school here where the clocks above the backboards show tenths when the clock is running (under a minute), but hundredths when the clock is stopped (also under a minute).
