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.

What do you mean by "definition"?

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
