I have been searching the internet trying to find the definition for the
function time() in the standard library header <ctime>. Can someone help me
with this? Thanks in advance.

std::clock_t std::time(std:: clock_t * tloc) ;
Returns the number of seconds since the Epoch (midnight, Jan 1, 1970).
If tloc is not NULL, it also writes the same value to the location
provided by the parameter.

time() returns type time_t.
clock() returns type clock_t.

Correct. Apologies for the misinformation.

As Jack mentioned, this is the wrong declaration. You are also
incorrect in the semantics. There's no requirement that time() return
seconds, certainly not seconds since the epoch. That happens to be
common, but portable should not rely on that or need that.

You can locate the ctime header file using "locate" or "find" commands
on UNIX
Thanks and regards

Correct, time_t's encoding is not specified. All you can do is
pass it to otherf unctions. If you want to know elapsed time
from some point, use difftime(). This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

Hola!
I am working on a program where I am including a library that came with my
numerical methods textbook. The "util.h" simply includes a large number
of files. I had to change the util.h slightly to adjust path names and
also take into account I am working with a case-sensitive OS.
My program is below. The sticky point is that adding (#include "util.h")
seems to negate the (#include <string>) statement somehow. How can I get...

Dear group,
I have been struggling to get a simple program for inserting and
extracting std::tm objects to/from streams to work. The code below tries
to read a std::tm object from a std::istringstream but fails to do so,
could anybody see what is wrong with the code? (Output follows the code.)
I fear that I have not completely grasped how the time_getXXX methods
should be used in the operator<< ?
With best regards,

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
